Geek Girl Con 2012 Recap

Geek Girl Con 2012 was last weekend and we were there! SmallRiniLady had a booth and I (Avalyn) went for moral support and because I can't pass up an excellent cosplay opportunity.

SmallRiniLady debuted her new Captain America crossplay outfit, which was SUPER ADORABLE. I love the the winged headband!

We made flyers for the swag bags. I cut them out myself - oy!

This was our second year at Geek Girl Con (last year was the first year for the con!) and we were up for our Intro to Costume Craft and Cosplay panel again. This year we actually got through all 54 slides with 5 minutes to spare (54 slides because who doesn't want to see lots of cosplay pictures???).

There was never a dull moment at the SmallRiniLady booth!

I attended several panels, including Art as a Business Online, Steampunk Sewing (focused on corsets and bustles), and LEDs in Fabric.

Art as a Business Online panel

Somehow, I found time for lunch.

I always end up at Subway during conventions!

On Sunday I found a really great Codex! She even did her best to follow the online video tutorial on making the staff, it was very well done.

The weather was super warm and sunny. Since I was wearing costumes all weekend and riding the bus to and from the convention I was very happy not to see rain. Rain and foam weapons do not go well together.

Downtown Seattle on a rare sunny day. Gorgeous!

Of course I found something I had to buy upstairs in the dealer hall. TARDIS earrings!

Squee!

That's all of my Geek Girl Con pictures. Cup of tea, anyone?

We didn't get stuck in the Labyrinth...

 

SmallRiniLady snaped a photo with Rosie the Riveter

Oh Henson, how do we love your googly eyes on Red Fraggle

Family Love

Ok, not sure who she is (I have a feeling that Ava will be lecturing SmallRiniLady later), but she did an amazing job hand dying silk and inlaying mother of pearl into her accessories

"I solemnly swear that I am up to no good."

must save her from the Nothing ....

...so we'll see you there tomorrow!
