I’m vibrating in my seat with excitement. Tomorrow is the STAR TREK CON!!!⭐️❤️✨

I’ll get to meet so many amazing people this weekend! My partner is VERY excited to meet Jeffrey Combs (me too)! I’m most excited for a dual photo I’m getting with Jeri Ryan and Robert Picardo! *squee!*

I’ll be sure to post pics! If anyone is also going to STSF in San Francisco and want to meet up, lemme know!

Okayy we got a Voyager science officer cosplay to make, here(wa)s the plan:

Using an existing pattern I found on etsy, I made adjustments based on vibes reference pictures of Janeway from Night and seeing what other people have made before (shout out to thresholdbb I was Looking at their past cosplays).

Treksona presentation to illustrate the changes I made~

Half the battle was decoding what the vintage pattern instructions were trying to tell me 🤡 but eventually with the help of the internet and my mom on call I figured out each step!

Oh and I had to learn how to iron and how the whole dang sewing machine worked, oiling it, threading the bobbin and needle, I even took apart the foot pedal at one point because I thought it wasn't working lol.

The mockups below, I made one out of Swedish tracing paper and the next one out of cotton (curtains I thrifted) after confirming that it would probably fit:

Turned out pretty good but I decided to move the front seams over just a bit...

Laying out the final pattern:

Cutting out the final pieces was really exciting it was starting to look like something!!

Detail shots below... I didn't feel like I could get the crispness I wanted for the shoulder points with the machine so I did it by hand :')

The shoulder pads were very exciting to put in as well!! I asked the person at JoAnn what the difference was between the two different shoulder pads I had picked up and they said one was more 80s power suit-- that was definitely the one I wanted for this jacket hehe

The final jacket below with a top I found on ebay (also found boots from there)!!! I ended up putting the sleeves in with a machine and ummm there's some puckering I'm trying not to be annoyed about h a h a. I may go back and fix that eventually I don't know... The invisible zipper I got didn't work either so I need to replace that somehow too hrm.

Anyway, I thrifted pants because I didn't want to tackle a whole other piece; I just added fabric to the bottom because they were a smidge short and then cut the iconic vent.

Here's the jacket on me, taken with a weird camera angle so the shoulders are a bit wonky at the edges haha but look!! I lined everything up so well!!

I felt ready to go hop on a ship sign me up for first contact I'm ready 🫡

Awright Lessons I Learned:

sewing projects take much much longer than anticipated (I went to stsf and was sewing licherally the night before and morning of. I know it's the convention experience but I was a tad stressed lol)

hand sewing in particular takes forever but I enjoyed it!

people are right to complain about setting in sleeves what da hell was that

flannel (what I used for the black part because it matched the pants the best) was great to work with

linen (the best teal they had in the store) was not!! doesn't iron well, doesn't sew well I don't want to use it ever again <3

this was my first sewing project Ever and I still was pretty hard on myself e h e..........much to think about...

Final words of wisdom from my mom:

Back to the Scully blouse soon!! After a little break :) Thanks for reading!

hi, idk if you'll see thos before tomorrow, but thanks to your authors notes on ao3 I realized I ALMOST MISSED STSF 😱😭 So THANK YOU for mentioning it!! Data is my favorite blorbo lately, Ive been hyperfixated on nothing but star trek for a while and I would have been SO SAD if I found out about this con afterward 😅😭 So I owe you a big thanks!!

Unfortunately we can't swing for tickets for the whole weekend, as my fiance and I are getting married next month, but we decided to splurge and get tix for tomorrow so we can at least gp for a day. Idk if you're comfortable meeting fellow tumblr/fanfic nerds, but if you are, I'd love to say hi! I'll try to post a pic of us on our way tomorrow morning, and we'll be there chasing brent around til it shuts down. 😆

Anyhow, your fic is great, thanks for giving me something to read every morning and thanks extra for the tip about the con!! ❤️❤️ Downside of living in SF is that there are so many cool things happening around that you don't even hear about all of them 😫 So I'm glad to not miss this!!

Oh dang I'm so glad you saw the note then!! Id have been sad on your behalf if you'd missed out!

I'll be here all weekend and happy to meet up with anyone who wants to see the weirdo behind the story 😂

Anyone who'd like to try to meet up Sat/Sun feel free to message me here. I can't promise I'll see it but so far this con seems relatively chill so I will hopefully be able to check messages from time to time ✌️

Jombs watch from STSF:

Jeffrey Combs has a new puppy

He’s just finished filming one or more episodes of a show on Peacock (my money is on “Hysteria”)

In the Q&A, someone called Weyoun’s ears ugly, and Jeff clapped back that they were beautiful. Different but beautiful.

The Star Trek Rat Pack CD was recorded last August and will be released imminently.
