☆Syaoran Li, Cardcaptor Sakura☆

Syaoran Li's battle costume from Cardcaptor Sakura. Baby’s first CLAMP costume! This costume was a milestone for me at the time. I patterned and sewed the green tunic. I learned how to applique and satin stitch for this costume. I did buy the white garments he wears underneath, mostly to save myself some time. I made the hat as well. A lot of this costume was trial and error and guesswork. Looking back on it now, I definitely have more skills and would do certain parts differently, but I’m still happy with how this costumes turned out.
