I've basically got 2 weeks worth of stuff to post today. So hold onto your butts, it's going to be a long post! Let's separate this into topics. 1. Las Vegas So last week was Vegas for work. I didn't think I was going to have to do this show again but it got pulled together kinda at the last minute so there I was again. I was up at 5:30 Monday morning ...
No it's not con crud. I've never really gotten con crud except that one time I came back from WSMI in Columbus sick in 2006. But the weather is changing and I'm still worn out from dragoncon so I feel like death warmed over. I slept a lot this weekend. Vague aches and pains in the back of my head/neck. I had wanted to swim after work today but storms ...
I have absolutely no costume stuff to talk about today. Chase was going to Nashville this weekend, and originally I was going to stay home and get started on Amidala and Crait Leia. But at the last minute I decided to go to my grandparents for the weekend instead. It worked out nicely; Chase was able to take my car to Nashville (which saved a ton on gas), and he ...
I usually post Monday and apparently I didn't since I posted on Friday last week. So I guess that trend is continuing. I have a lot of random stuff to talk about so I'm going to break this into sections. Costume Stuff I have no costume stuff to talk about... yet. Taking a small break after finishing Tink and Peter Pan. Speaking of which, Tink and Peter video breakdown is ...
First up I FINALLY got the Tinkerbell portfolio page put up -- it's here! Only took me all week! Beyond that I have nothing to talk about in terms of costumes. I got my sewing room cleaned up. Packed up some stuff in there that wasn't necessary - IE, in my cabinet I have all my music CDS on the top shelf, that just collect dust. So I packed those ...
I have a bunch of stuff to post. Buckle in! First loooook what came in the mail last week! I'm finally gonna retire my old Hermione. Been wanting to for a few years now! I bought Luna's wand back in 2015 intending to start on a Luna costume and just never have... but now I have a sweater and a patch... I'll probably start collecting more stuff for it later this ...
I hope nobody finds this post by googling "Peter Pan Pants Pattern" because I'm not actually talking about Peter Pan's pants pattern. It's just something Kevin and I kept saying last weekend as a tongue twister LOL So I've spent the bulk of this week focusing on finishing up Peter Pan. Tuesday I was all like "I'm going to finish ALL of it tonight!" and then that didn't happen, so ...
I got my Misato pics uploaded! This is now officially the oldest costume we've shot on the white backdrop - beating out Lum by a couple of months. Like I said in the last post, I shot with my natural tone wig first. And then switched to the original purple wig. I decided to wear these black combat boots from the 90s instead of my original brown shoes. I never ...
I am getting SO frustrated with USPS. The last two small things I've ordered -- my tablet glove back in March, and now my fabric swatches -- have both gone missing. The tablet glove made it to Memphis and then just disappeared. After 3 weeks Amazon refunded it (not like it was expensive to start with)... and then it finally showed up, at the beginning of MAY. A month and a ...
Sorry I haven't posted in a while! I've had nothing to post about. Haven't been working on anything - but finally going fabric shopping this weekend YAY. And hopefully my fabric samples I ordered earlier this week will also be here today so I can place the order for that. So what have I been up to otherwise? Wellllll let me tell you. Remember how I said at Celebration I ...
