In galaxy far away

So with several metres of vintage double knit polyester from Value Village

a little sparkly bias tape

and a pattern from 1967

 

This mom went where many have gone boldly before,

with the help of Ann Person

and a vintage S-T-R-E-T-C-H & SEW pattern.

DS2 as Captain Kirk

 

 

 

Really, this fabric and pattern date right back to the time of Star Trek.

Turns out they were just in style

and not so far ahead of their time.

 

And for the record,

it's the easiest costume I ever made:

serging a few seams, attaching a few cuffs and a neckband.
