Tinkerbell and a 3 day weekend

I took Friday off so I could sew, guess how much sew I got done?! (Hint: not a lot. At least not that day.) I bummed around all morning, then went to Hobby Lobby because I needed a new roll of paper for making patterns. Then I was done earlier than expected, but I'd ordered my lunch online set for 11:30... so I had a little time to kill. Went by ...

It’s not a big post, but it’s a good one

I've been down with a migraine since tuesday... which especially sucks because I'm working overtime this week so I can be off friday so my work days are extra long. I basically come home from work, eat, have a bath, and go to bed at like 9 because I'm so tired from the migraine. Hopefully it goes away today. Tuesday we got more snow. More snow than ice this time! While ...

A Non-Birthday Blog Post

It's been a bit since I did a regular post! I've been concentrating on getting the birthday blog posts up and going. So let me pick up since the last post. Chase and I split an amazon gift card from Christmas and I got this: Oh yes. It's good. And we got a lion hat for Luna. She hates it. But at least she enjoys it as a toy (she ...

Happy New Year!

GUESS WHAT! My blog is 20 years old now. It's in college. My earliest blog posts were late 97/early 98 and the oldest post I was able to track down to reupload was from January 8, 1998. I think next week I will do a big post about it for its birthday! So anyway, this weekend was rather lazy. Mostly because it was SO cold. Like seriously it was in single digits?! It's never ...

I have gazillion things to post

Wow I didn't realize it had been so long since I last posted. Almost 2 weeks ago! So where to start... We saw TLJ again on 12/17 with Ash and Gabe. I wore my Hoth Leia vest and boots and wore my hair braided up. I was sitting on a bench in the lobby waiting on Chase and this little boy came up to me and said, "I love your outfit!" And ...

The Last Jedi

Site updates: Patreon Print Store is live. I been waffling about where to list all of my costume/art prints I've been saying I'm going to list for ages. And then it was finding the time to individually list them all. But then I realized, hey I need stuff for my new patreon. Let's just make them all a patreon reward and then I don't have to list them anywhere. ...

2017 Year in Review

It's that time of the year again... time to see what I accomplished this year, what I didn't get to, and what I did instead of doing the things I said I was going to do. So last year I said my goals for 2017 were: 1. Georgian Belle – as I said above, finish it up for Visioncon. Did I?! Not really. I redid the wig, twice - once for Visioncon, and ...

it’s the weekly monday post

Friday was busy!! So Wednesday last week I pulled out Belle to double check everything - it needed some roses replaced and some of the appliques sewn back on. And I needed to restyle the wig since I took it down for Dorothy. Then Friday I came straight home from work and started getting ready. I experimented a little bit - I actually wore both my panniers and my round ...

Sci-Fi Night, Leia progress, etc

It's the usual post-weekend Monday update. First up! Saturday night we went to Sci-Fi night with the Riverkings. When they say "take a silly picture" I never know what to do LOL It was fun, Chase wants to go to another game just to sit and watch. Which brings me to Leia updates.... This was probably the second-to-last troop for my Leia costume. I figure The Last Jedi opening night ...

More Leia progress, and an ambulance

So yesterday morning was a little weird. I was on the ramp getting off the interstate on my way work, sitting in a line at the light waiting to turn left. I heard an ambulance siren.... look around try to see where it's coming from. Turned out it was coming up the ramp behind me, but I was 2nd in a line of cars so there was nowhere to go. ...
