The Magic Returns in 2022!

A Fan-Operated Science Fiction and Fantasy Literary and Filk Convention in the Dallas/Fort Worth Area
September 16-18, 2022 * Sheraton DFW Airport, 4440 W. John Carpenter Freeway, Irving, TX

FenCon XVIII Costuming Programming

Visit the Costuming gang in the Medal of Honor room!  (Look for signs, it's to the right of the bar in the Lobby). It's a friendly hang out space. We'll have a sewing station for last minute repairs and fixes, reference books for inspiration, displays of hats and fun costumes, and people to bounce ideas off!

Need a new set of measurements? Need help with a pattern? Need another pair of hands for a fitting? Drop in during our open hours (when there's not a panel in process) and visit! 

Just need a quiet place to knit and spin some yarns with fellow crafters? You're welcome to come and sit a spell. 

For other programming interest to costume & makers, see FenCon’s Maker track!!
