So with LFCC over and the post con blues well and truly in bedded in my mind, I have decided to start on my cosplays for MCM in October. I am staring with Ruby from Once Up A Time. There are 2 others I have planned but I will post about those soon enough. Enchanted Forest Ruby I started with the most important part the cloak. This the first time I have used this much fabric.

I never felt claustrophobic at any point which was a nice change from last year.

The big the part of my weekend was the cosplay conte
