Corde, WW, Mando and other updates

Handmaiden: I got the basic robe made. However I made a mistake and sewed the front together opposite – no worries, easy to fix, I’ll just take it apart and switch the sides. I’m going to do that tonight. Tomorrow night I will do the designs… tonight I will start the beading.

Mando: No major progress, except I found some fabric I already had I can use for the vest, and I finally figured out exactly what I’m going to do with the vest. I ordered my boots. I’m hoping they’ll come today, since it’s been a week since I ordered them.

WW: Got a decent start on it this weekend. Bought my fabric. Made a stupid mistake on sunday that’s going to require starting over on that part *slaps forehead* But it’s going well, all in all.

Belle upgrades: No progress. I figured out what I wanted to do, but have yet to buy anything for it yet. Didn’t find anything I liked at Joann’s the other day, I’ll have to hit up Hancocks this weekend.

The other costume I want to try to do is remake my ceremonial Leia dress, or the lavender/steel Padme nightgown. The only reason I’m thinking about the Padme nightgown is I have that “sorta” McCalls pattern for it, and Chase made the brooch and it looks awesome. I did find pretty fabric at Joanns for it this past weekend, but it would have been $90 and that’s more than I want to spend on fabric for a minor costume.
I’m going to wait on both of them, see how the current projects progress… if all is going well in about two weeks, I’ll look at making one of them. I will definitely NOT be upset if I don’t get to do either, my schedule is already packed for dcon as it is. I’m going to do both later in the year, though, for sure…
