Add me into that figure.  I was self-taught and
started at about 19 years old when I wanted a Star
Wars costume that wasn't crap, and didn't want to pay
a lot of money because I didn't have it, so I made my
own "Lady Han Solo" costume.  That year I ended up
making 4 Star Wars costumes, and after that, more Star
Wars and Lord of the Rings and Jane Austen events just
kept me going and going!  Now I'm working on my
graduate degree in costume technology.  Go figure!  I
always wanted to be a scientist.  You never know where
you're going to end up.
