I genuinely don’t know if I would ever be able to do embroidery like this again. The whole process is a blur in my memory but WOW I had fun with textures and materials!
I think the second noldorheart (IG) and I watched the Valyrian Wedding scene in House of the Dragon, we knew we had to cosplay this. We started working on the cosplays in January when we dyed the fabrics, and finished them the day before the Elfia where we wanted to wear them. Of course we took many long breaks in between.
I’m so thrilled how these two outfits and of course the first photos turned out!
My Rhaenyra bethrothal dress… it’s finally complete 😫🤩
(yes I know the dress pattern is different… I started this weeks ago + with a free dress pattern (yes a wedding dress pattern lol) but that’s okay! It doesn’t need to be a perfect match and honestly I’m just so proud of myself. also the middle panel is split in two bc I didn’t have enough fabric to have it be all one)
Daenerys is one of those costumes where I still look at it and go “HOW the heck did I make that??” and tbh sometimes I don’t know 😅 It was my first embroidery project, too! Talk about diving in the deep end 😬😂
I’ve been hesitant to do GoT/HoTD stickers because it’s such a huge franchise! Adding book lore to that makes it even more intimidating 😅 But I think I’m ready to take on the beast! Figured you can’t go wrong with the Iron Throne!
