A More Sustainable Adventure

Sewing with a Disability – making sewing more accessible

By letter2self on January 2, 2023



My contribution to CoCoVid is all the things I have learnt about costume making with a disability.

What is CoCoVid you ask? CoCoVid is an online, interactive event that will be put on by the members of CosTube (Costume + YouTube) during the weekend that would have been Costume College. This includes over a hundred videos, 29 live videos and 8 Instagram events all about costume.

We are also running an virtual version of the ribbon game using the Badgewallet app. Watch to the end of the video for the code to collect the Sewing with a Disability badge. More details in the CoCoVid schedule.

I am also hosting an event all about other crafts over on my Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/retroclaude/
We all know that there is a lot more to costume making than just sewing and I want to celebrate all the other amazing crafts and skills that you talented bunch have!

You can find the entire CoCoVid schedule and more details about how to join in the ribbon game here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kqbvE_sdgdZyjHxxwUtC8Pmn_MPAuA7z/view

You can also join the CoCoVid Discord server and hang out with other costumers from around the world! I’ll be there on Thursday and would love to chat to some of you wonderful subscribers of mine.
