If I could make the title longer I would also note: this was made in a week. After not sewing for like a year. And is part one of…?
I have two posts on patreon regarding my absence if you're curious, the TLDR tho is that I have been depressed.

@@AngelaClaytonCostumery oh gods i know; i’m on a combo of an snri, atypical antipsychotic, and some antianxiety/antidepressant. i had to get off my last mood stabiliser despite the stability it gave me because i could NOT work on any costumes or write poetry or anything and i was going crazy. i’m doing better now and glad to see you recovering as well; people only worry if they care about you! that’s how i remind myself not to feel guilt for disappearing for my health some years back. i’ve been following your work since your sakizo cosplay when i was 17 and starting to learn how to sew so i just wanted to reach out and let you know how many of us understand these struggles and that even if it happens, long-time and old supporters will stick around even if the algorithm does you dirty.

I already commented, but engagement is everything, so I’m commenting again. I’m so extremely excited that you’re back. Honestly, you don’t super need to explain your mental health if you don’t feel you can do that. I follow you on Patreon (under a different name) and I said something similar, but I want to reiterate it. Mental health is so very difficult and I think we’re all just happy you made it through and can create again. Some people just have gifts, and I think you have one for sewing. Your designs and eye for style is something otherworldly. Your ability to see what I would regard as ugly fabric and make it into the most beautiful dress ever is why we all support you. I really hope you stay around, Angela, you’re so fun to watch

@mrsgingernoisette 2 ай бұрын

WE LOVE YOU ANGELA. Not because you have talent, not because you have experience, not that it's a pleasure to watch the creation of your artwork. It's because you are you, unique, one and only.
