Witch Hat Atelier cosplay (Pt. 1): Sewing Tetia's atelier apprentice dress for Cosplay Photo MiniCon

With DragonCon right around the corner, I decided to tackle a cosplay project I’ve been dreaming about—Tetia’s apprentice dress from Witch Hat Atelier. What started as “just the base” quickly turned into a lesson in pin tucks, pattern mods, and mild chaos. Follow along as I draft and sew the main underdress for Tetia’s cosplay, from pattern tweaking and pintuck experiments, to zipper drama and custom cuffs. I talk through my process, my mistakes, and some fun technical sewing skills I picked up along the way. Whether you’re here for cosplay construction, cottagecore fantasy vibes, or just to see how I solve sewing puzzles on camera—welcome. You’re in the right place. This is just the first part of my Witch Hat Atelier cosplay build—more magic coming soon.

With about a month and a half until DragonCon, we are about to get into some serious cosplay construction. And I swear this channel isn't turning into just a cosplay space. In fact, today's video could be considered sort of cottagecore inspired, or even an exploration of some new technical sewing skills. But if I'm being fully transparent with you, I just really need to make this outfit. This is book one from the Witch Hat Atelier series, which they're meant to be making an anime for. But I started reading this book, and I've just fallen in love with the worldbuilding and the characters, and especially the outfits. Today, I'm specifically looking to make the school uniform under dress. The one that Tetia is wearing here. I think Tetia is who I want to cosplay in the end, but just having the school uniform gives me a base for a number of characters. And while the dress itself is pretty basic, there is some interesting detail up near the neckline and the chest and shoulder area. So I have a few ideas on how to do that, but let's get the basic dress put together and we'll go from there. To get started, I decided to try out sewist.com (not sponsored or affiliated in any way), but to give myself a base dress as a starting point. I was able to explore and plug in different silhouettes and shapes, which was really helpful since I'm still learning the terms that I need to search in order to find patterns to match my goal. So I got myself something that should be pretty close, and I'm planning to adjust this pattern to even better match the dress in the source material, which means making some adjustments once I get all of these pages cut out and taped together. All right I have the pattern ready to go. I actually used this pattern in a previous project. Though I am blanking right now as to which one. If I remember I will link to it here. I hope that explains the state that she's in. A little busted but still usable. Now I need to figure out how I'm going to achieve the banded diamond chest piece and the banded shoulder pieces on the front. But rather than cutting and sewing a bunch of rectangles to sort of patchwork together a piece like this, I instead want to try pin tucking to achieve this banded look. A pin tuck is a decorative sewing technique that involves creating very narrow pleats in fabrics that are then stitched down. And so to get these pleated pieces into the exact shapes that we need, we're going to have to do some math. No, God, please. No no no no. All right, so. I think based on the art, I'm going to need seven bands that will say need to be one... sizing up to an adult, we’ll say 1.5in wide. And then I'm thinking one eighth inch pintucks which requires a quarter of an inch of fabric in order to do the pin tuck. Plus, let's say a half inch seam allowance. Just to keep my math easy. And that's going to apply to the center cut as well. So. You know what? Let's not do math. Let's just. Let's draft it up on some paper. After prepping a few sheets of paper with the mocked up pin tucks and taping the tucks in place with some masking tape, I retraced the relevant chest pieces of the pattern onto these pin tucked pages. Then I cut them out and after I made sure they did in fact match the original pattern shape, I untuck the pin tucks by cutting along the masking tape and voila! I had the pieces I needed for the chest. So I'm realizing now that I've spent all this time working on these pintucks that I prefer the look of the backside of the pintucks for these pieces. So this is an example of what the pintucks would look like if they were front facing. If they were on the outside. And then this is what they would look like if they were on the inside, which is basically the same as just...
