I ran into ray the other night I don't think they've settled on a date yet for jtaf. I also signed up for the cherry blossom festival ^_^ Hopefully I can make the costume I signed up as if not I'll be going as something else...

a how to cosplay panel would be good for those who need help, but for a how to sew panel, you'd probably be better off taking a sewing class at your school or local community college. Or go to your local joanns they do teach sewing there and you bring ur own machine there so you learn using your own machine. For basic learning on how to sew straight with your machine practice with ur machine not threaded and use binder paper try and follow the lines on the paper. As for threading your machine every machine is different so yes you'd have to follow your machine's manual on how to thread it. ^_^; Things that could be covered in a cosplay panel are: patterns and how to alter them to fit your needs, fabric choosing, finishing your costumes like serging or whatnot. I'd also think urls or lists of places to purchase cosplay goods. actually the cosplay panels are more popular than you think. I don't even think the host of the panel matters as much. Provided the panel isn't at a time when there's something larger going on there should get a good turnout.



but I do have to say there should be separate pannels like one on costume construction, another on props and another on armor. There isn't enough time to fit everything into an hours worth of time that panels usually last. ^_^; Last year there were some good panels on stuff like vaccum forming with plastics and the like.
