About the project

So maybe this doesn't happen to you, but given that you're reading a blog about historical costuming, I'm guessing it does.  

Sometimes I get really excited about things and that's all I can focus on for a few days/weeks/months/years.  For the last decade my thing has been the SCA and historical costuming.  More recently, I've gotten back into comic books after a long absence.  And, as I am want to do, I have become a woman obsessed.  

One of my favorite books right now is Kelly Sue DeConnick's Captain Marvel,which is about as bad ass as a comic can be.  I mean really.  Look at this:

Terry Dodson's cover of Avenging Spider-Man #9

How could you not love that sass?! (And how could you not love Terry Dodson's art?)  If you're a comic book person and aren't reading CM, then you should check it out.

So we've established two things; one, I love sewing historical costumes, and two, I love Captain Marvel.  So, can you see where this is going next?

Captain Marvel as a Trossfrau.  It's going to be awesome.

A lot more awesome than this rough sketch, I promise!
