What skills do you need to put a costume together? Sewing? Would you be willing to take on an evening course for that? True, the beginners level is simply "hem a hankie" up to "make a simple cushion cover", but a cushion cover is one step away from a floppy hat, and in theory a tabard is a very large hankie with a hemmed hole in the middle. So what other skills mixed with a bit of creative thinking do you need? And as for hitting you with stick, we both know people who can do it virtually (using automated remote systems if required) and a few physically? Ok, lets assume that you really want to cosplay.
