I can has steampunk?

I've been sick the last few days so I've been trying to work on my costume while being all coughy and sniffly. But I finally did enough to post some progress pics!



Front of the vest. It's not done definitely, I still need to attach the channel and the lining, plus the buttons. I'm wondering if I should just put the bias trim all around the vest. Thoughts??


Back of the vest! I'm really proud of the embroidery... but it was a bitch to do. I never ever want to use metallic thread ever again! It breaks easily, gets stuck in the machine, etc, it was a niiiightmare. But in the end, it looks really cool.


I designed the embroidery myself based on the wings from Clover. :D


Look! Glasses!!! :D

THANKS! Yeeaaaahh it took awhile, because metallic thread is a bitch to work with and I kept getting tired and stopping because of being sick >.
