some random notes:
-Mom cleaned my Belldandy dress and managed to get all the nasty mud stains off the back of the white skirt (from when it rained at dragoncon). She also cleaned my plugsuit and got those stains off of it, too.
-Almost finished with my quidditch cloak. the sweater lady FINALLY called and said she’d have my sweater done by the 29th at the latest. I’m really nervous about it – I’m going to make mom pick it up because if it’s not what I expect I don’t want to suddenly make a face in front of her. Still got to finish my arm and leg guards.
-definite cons for next year: Katsucon, MTAC, San Diego Comic Con and Dragoncon. Not as many as I had this year because I’m possibly going to Paris over Spring Break.
-Still don’t know about Numa Rei no con – haven’t found anyone to go with me…
-I need to do something about this journal. I may use my greatestjournal account if I can figure out (it kept making my browser crash the other day – if it keeps doing that I *won’t* use it.)
-Nightmarez was cool last night – everyone was really nice, I’m looking forward to saturday! wore amidala with the repainted trim and shortened sleeves – I still need to fix the sleeves on the jacket and resew the embroidery on the top sleeves (after shortening them it made the misplaced). I’d LIKE to make new gloves and a new necklace, but I don’t know how many more times I’m going to wear it. I may do it sometime next year if I feel like I’m going to get more wear out of it.
Upcoming Costumes:
Halloween 2003: Gryffindor Quidditch Uniform (harry potter)
Numa Rei No Con (if I don’t go, I’ll go ahead and make these over Christmas break to be worn at Katsucon): new Belldandy (Ah! My Goddess), Honda Tohru (Fruits Basket)
Lord of the Rings: original Arwen dress
Katsucon: no new ones planned
MTAC: Jack Sparrow (POTC), Ozma of Oz (Oz books duh)
San Diego Comic Con: Dark Phoenix (X-Men), Imperial Officer (Star Wars)
Dragoncon: Bespin Leia (Star Wars) and something else (haven’t decided yet)
That’s all that I have planned. I still will make something for Halloween I guess…but I don’t know what, yet.
