Meet the Team!

The Cosplay Stitch and Seam started as a blog, featuring cosplayers and their craft, in 2012 by VFire. When 2018 rolled around, VFire and Pannon found themselves talking constantly about the cosplay community, craft, and contests when they were hanging out and decided to make a podcast. The Cosplay Stitch and Seam then evolved from a blog to a podcast with the incredible help of David! Since then the three hosts have been excited to feature the stitchers, seamers, and in-betweeners of the amazing community that has grown from the podcast. Thank you!

VFIRE

HOST, MEDIA TECH

She/They

Vermilion Fire, aka Mercedes, is always looking to level up her skills in just about anything. She carves wood into swords and shields, makes PVC pipe bows, leather-crafts armor, metal works details, and more. VFire also loves taking hers and her friends’ creations to epic locations for fun photoshoots that bring amazing characters and scenes to life.

Cosplay has been a huge part of her life for making new friends and trying new things. The community has helped her become more confident in herself and she seeks out others to help them find their inner strengths as well.

ANNND I’MMM… DAVID

HOST, EDITOR, DUNGEON MASTER

He/Him

David Jeffress has been an active, enthusiastic nerd for as long as he can remember. He fell in love with podcasts as a listener in 2015. Inspired by the myriad of styles he heard, he wanted to create something of his own and thus, three podcasts, four including this one, were created. His passion comes through the most in “the Last Voice” and it worth a listen to hear his creativity fly.

David plans to continue his podcasting pursuits so keep an eye out for future projects. When he isn't editing or recording, David is often spending time playing video games, reading comics or watching movies with his cats.
