Here are the questions from Nancy-Raven's attic.
What is your favorite costuming event , futur or past ?
Of the ones I've been to it's definitely Star Wars Celebrations.
Which skill do you wish to have or do not control very well?
I'm useless when it comes to working with hard materials. I would love to be able to create my own jewellery or accessories out of all the materials that are out there (sintra/worbla/clay/ and so on)
Silk or art silk?
I don't want to sound elitist, but I've fallen in love with silk. It can be tricky to work with, but it's just so beautiful, both to look at and to the touch.
What is the thing you didn't like about sewing and costuming ?
What is the fabric , item or accessories you wish to buy but never did because of the budget?I'm a firm believer that it's impossible to have too many shoes, and if I could I would love to have historically correct shoes for all my costumes.
I hate that it's so judgmental, it's so easy finding faults in both our own and others' works.
Are you in a costuming group official or not?
I'm a member of the 501st Legion and Rebel Legion, Svenska 1800-talssällskapet, Svenska 1900-talssällskapet and "Skapa historiska kläder och gör något kul" on Facebook.
Where and what is the event of your dream? It used to be Dragon*Con, but nowadays I'm more and more hoping to be able to go to Costume College one day.
The movie or tv serie you love more then other because the costumes are a candy for eyes? I love historical dramas, but one film that I'm very conflicted about, but still watch just because I love the costumes is Gone with the Wind.
When did you start to blog and why?
People were simply asking me to post pictures of my costumes, and I felt that the best way to do that was to make a blog.
Why did you choose sewing and costuming as a hobby?
I like dressing up, and I have a sister that is really good when it comes to sewing. When I started to come up with the idea of creating my own first Star Wars costumes it felt natural that if I wanted to do it then I would of course sew them myself. I had sewn some clothes already when I was a teen, with the help of my sister, so I never thought much about other alternatives if I wanted to dress up.
Post 11 random facts about yourself

3. I've lived in Sweden and Ireland

9. I can't draw or paint anything better than stick figures
10. I hate spring (and it has nothing to do with pollen or allergies, I just don't like that season)

The questions I would like the nominated people answer are:
