2016 Year in Review!
I was going to say “it’s a little early for my year in review” but when I went back to look at last year’s to get my old plans, I did that one on 12/18! And this one is on 12/21 so I don’t think it’s early at all anymore. Ha! So last year I said this would be this…

Dolores, & bowling
This was a busy weekend! Saturday we spent the whole day running errands and Christmas shopping, pausing in the afternoon to go bowling for Ash’s birthday! I haven’t been bowling in probably a decade, so that was very interesting, LOL. None of us did very well but it was fun. Then some more shopping and then dinner for Ash’s birthday!…

Rogue One
more like Rogue FUN! First up, finished up Glinda and got it sent off, it fit perfectly, yay! Now I REALLY need my dressform back from mom. I finally made a little bit of progress on Bespin Leia. I really wanted to transfer one of my patterns over to some junk fabric so I could see how the spacing was…

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…

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…

Christmas tree!
So Thursday night Chase had a meeting but I really wanted to decorate the house for Christmas, so I attempted to do it on my own. Everything kinda went ok, I managed to get the tree up by myself and got all the lights on. And then I decided I hated all the lights so, so much. The problem with…

Various art and stuff
Ok really there’s no “and stuff”… it’s just art. But the title seemed too short. First up is this Edith sketch from a month ago. I started colouring a while back but I got bored and haven’t finished it. Don’t know if I will so I thought I’d go ahead and upload it. Maybe I’ll at least finish her hand,…

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…

The Photopass post
It’s the traditional post-Disney photopass picture post! In front of the Christmas Tree at Magic Kingdom! The photographer told us to throw our hands up and look like we owned the place LOL We like catching photographers in places we hadn’t seen them before – like this one right outside of Big Thunder Mountain. This one cracks me up. Kevin…

One more Disney Trip Report
So this trips concludes our #MouseEarsforaYear… our last trip as Annual Passholders (for now — maybe again in a few years??). It’s been really great but honestly I’m so exhausted after this trip (and having 2 so close together) that I’m ready for a few months off LOL CAUTION… there’s some puke in this post so if you don’t like…

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…

Some more art
I finished up the other two Disney princesses the last couple of days: Cinderella, meh, she was my least fav of the 4 I did. Snow White. I’ve also gotten all of the art pages/galleries finished and updated so if you wander into the art link in the menu above, it should be easier to navigate. As soon as we…

Is it Disney time yet???
So Friday and I had my “re-do” of my doctor’s appointment from earlier in the year – the one I had the panic attack at and they sent me away! No panic attacks this time. BP was still high but not as bad as last time. It’s over and done with for a year! But I for the past couple…

the word “sketch” holds no meaning
Like literally over the past few days I’ve typed the word “sketch” so many times to tag posts that it no longer looks like a legitimate word, it looks weird and wrong. SKETCH SKETCH SKETCH But I’m all done going back through the archives of my blog and adding in all the old stuff. Enjoy at your own risk and…

A Gigantic Dump of Artwork
So I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that I knew I had “a couple” of sketchbooks in the attic at my parents, that I’d seen them once when I had to go up there a few months ago. I wanted to go over and grab them and see what was in them, mostly driven by knowing that some of…

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. And then over at Magic Kingdom… I also got these added to my Tightrope Walker portfolio page along with parasol construction info. Speaking of…

Disney, Again
So we finally got to go on our rescheduled October Disney trip! Thursday we left directly after work, drove to Atlanta to spend the night. Our usual overnight hotel in Columbus was booked solid, so we had them move us to one in Atlanta… and it was not great. (When I said “Oh then just move us to one in…

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…

a redraw, a redo
Still going back through the archives, fixing old posts, making them public, categorizing them and adding headers… currently about half way thru 2002. I’m hoping maaaaaaybe I’ll be done before I go out of town! I know I’ve talked a lot of website, old stuff, old art, etc lately, because that’s what I’ve been filling my time with — I’m…
