Black Widow Pockets
You know what Black Widow, member of the Avengers and super spy, needs with her outfit? Pockets. She needs pockets. Just... don't ask what she's keeping in there. You probably don't want to find out.

Black Widow Doublet
Elfsea Baronial College was at the end of September. I was intrigued by the prospect of a full day of A&S classes (like a mini King's College!), but I was really hooked when I learned that they were having a "Disney your garb" costume contest. Any Disney-owned character was fair game. Some friends and I decided to go as Avengers. Chris was Dr. Strange, Franchesca was Pepper Potts, and I was Black Widow. The pockets, and the to-be-made sleeves will have their own posts, later, but here I'll show the doublet I made. It was pretty, functional, and carried the theme of the character well.
I did not win the costume contest, but I enjoyed playing with the techniques and exploring how the dress in the painting might have been made.
