Glinda, and Frozen

Part One: Glinda I finished up the Glinda bodice Saturday! Friday night I had a near panic attack over the ribbons, because as I got to the end I realized I was running shorter than I expected. As I got to the last segment I was two strips short. But, I had 6 stripes on the left side of the back, and only 4 on the unfinished right side - so I ...

Glinda!

So mom and I have been working on a simplified version of Glinda's "Popular" dress from Wicked. I keep saying it's a theater project, but it's not really for a play - but it's for a theater related project. Anyway, we went a few weeks ago and picked out fabric, and mom has been working on the skirt. I'm in charge of the bodice. I sent the lining off with ...

MCFC Photos

Better late than never! Disney trip got me behind, just got these from Chase last night and uploaded. There's not a ton. MCFC 2016 Gallery Mostly Donna photos. The last known photo of my phone *cries* It still hasn't turned up -- hasn't been turned on or anything, which further reinforces my suspicion that it got kicked somewhere and is just laying in a corner or something. Either that or a ...

A weird weekend

This weekend did not go as planned. Friday we were going to go see Fantastic Beasts... but I was still feeling a little under the weather and wanted to save my energy for the con Saturday, so we stayed home. That night, I did finish the Phis and Gracyn that matches the other SunDowner character refs I did a few weeks ago: And I added them and Yfandes to the ...

More Disney photos, and Edith sleeves

First up, Chase gave me the photos he took of my Tightrope Walker last weekend! Had to go get pics with my alligator buddies before we left the hotel for the party. I love these guys.

Speaking of construction info, Amanda over at my FB asked about my ...

A whole lot of stuff

So I was planning on getting all this stuff done this weekend - clean up the house, repack for Disney, do a bunch of laundry... did I get any of it done? No, not a bit. Instead, I watched way too much "Say Yes to the Dress," went a con, did a photoshoot, went to the Elmwood Twilight Tour, and did this: So I'll start with Saturday. I got into ...

3 Half-Assed Galadriels

So to pick up where I left off last week -- I obviously ended up being SO GLAD we rescheduled our trip since our party canceled and the parks shut down on Friday! We'd have only had 1 park day and 1.5 days of stuck at Pop Century!! It still sucks missing my cousins but it looks like they still had a fun trip anyway. I had already scheduled to take Friday ...

down the rabbit hole

So anyway, to continue where I left off the previous post... The rabbit hole is never ending. I went BACK through all my old backup files last night, looking for more old stuff. I managed to scrape up the majority of my old pre-blogger "Free talks" from 1998, though I can't find much from 1999 -- there's a big chunk of summer 99 missing and I don't know if that's because I didn't ...

Link and a parasol

So to finish from my earlier post, Sunday we ran errands, and packed. And I ran over to Kevin's house and picked him up so we could go over his Link costume stuff. He hasn't worn it since 2013, so we needed to make sure everything still fit and worked ok. He's wearing it to Mickey's Not So Scary thursday and I didn't want to get there and discover his pants ...
