weird myspace comments LOL WUT
I keep meaning to post the silly, weird myspace messages I get, and I always forget. But I remembered today – here’s the latest. Subject: one would assume… message: “…you might have an interest in wrestling since your ionto wearing alot of the attire that could work for it. My wife wrestles and is looking for opponents like you. Please…

when we couldn’t go to C4
I’m really starting to get irritated by something that keeps happening, and it’s not even something I should really be complaining about, because it’s just people attempting to be friendly/nice. No matter how many times I have said, “I’m not going to c4” – people still assume we are. I have it on my myspace page, right there with my…

MTAC 2007 Pics!
So MTAC was pretty much ok. Like I said in my previous post, I wore Belle, then Utena — I need to fix the waistband on Belle, as I said last post. Also, it was too darn cold to wear the shoes I brought to wear with this!! LOL I opted for my tennis shoes instead! Link is ambushed by…

Hello from MTAC 2007!
Relaxing in the room here at MTAC for a moment. So far it’s been pretty good. My only complaint about the con itself was finding out “no weapons allowed” just as we got to the door of the dealer’s room – after standing in line for 30 minutes to get there. They said I could check my sword (my fragile…

Belle pink dress progress
All of the light pink parts are just very basically pinned on (except the sleeves). Tonight, I’ll hem the skirt, and attach all those lovely pink parts, put the grommets in the back, and it’s done!

Some Utena progress pics
I haven’t taken a lot of progress pics of Utena, but here’s a couple I have. Here’s the new shoes and socks finished: And here’s my sword hilt, ready for casting:

when i figured up some stats
Obnoxious Costume Stuff I have been really bored at work lately. I went through my costume views and stuff at cosplaylab and came up with some stats. Most Viewed: Belldandy Second most Viewed: Queen Amidala Parade Dress Both of those are because I won 2nd place in the Belldandy look-a-like contest there, and first place in the Padme look-a-like contest,…

Pink Belle progress, and Utena upates
It’s almost done; should finish it tonight. I ran out of pink thread last night, so I’m going to have to get more today. I wasn’t originally going to make the cloak to go with the dress, but I had this velvet laying around – I picked it up in Nashville several months ago, because it was on the clearance…

Utena updates
I got all my Utena pieces cut out today. I used this Vogue pattern – I just used the basic jacket pieces, lengthened them and widened them at the bottom. I’m happy with it so far. It needs to be taken in, and the bottom pieces need reshaped a little (I cut extra wide, so i would have enough, and…

Heart of an Empire premiere
This weekend was an odd mix; not sure I enjoyed the trip, but all in all I’m glad I went, since the movie was good. We set out Friday as soon as Chase got home from work — after several stops (gas, dinner, snacks, stretching legs, changing drivers, etc — you’d think it was a 9 hour drive the way…

MidsouthCon 2007 pics!
Friday, I did indeed wear Arwen, and got a few new pics. I went without the wig most of the time, only put it on for the pictures. I wore Susan first thing Saturday morning – it was quite interesting having to drive the 45 minutes to the con hotel while wearing this (I didn’t wear the wig while I…

when i chronicled my wallet
I’m cleaning out my wallet, because I got a new one! I thought I’d list all the junk that was in it, because i’m a nerd like that. Ticket stubs: Casino Royale, Happy Feet, TMNT, Talladega Nights (that’s it? I usually have like, 20 in there.) Receipts: Ben and Jerry’s, Sekisui, Target, Texas De Brazil, McAllister’s, Hancock Fabrics, Huey’s, another…

when chase bought me another leia
I forgot to mention the other day, Chase bought me this sweet 1/6 scale Leia model. It just needs to be put together. I can’t wait to put it up with the other Leias.

when i couldn’t find my costume stuff
My day of working at home has turned into “Day of Looking for Stuff.” First I had to find all my Susan stuff. I haven’t worn it since 2003, so it was spread out all over. The corset and skirt were together, at least. One boot was where it was supposed to be – the other was hiding. One of…

Ceremonial Leia 90% done
The dress 90% finished on the dressform. It still needs to be hemmed along the bottom, and the belt is my regular ANH belt – still working on the new belt.

Ceremonial Leia and Wonder Woman updates!
Today is Chase’s birthday! 🙂 We had cake last night, and macaroni grill. Last night, I put together the bodice for Belle. It’s HUGE. I cut it out at the size I usually use, which is usually a *little* big, but this looks like it’s at least 3 or 4 sizes too big. Crazy stuff. Nothing that can’t be fixed,…

bouncing from one project to the next
I got a base necklace for my necklace pieces… I haven’t figured out how to attach them yet, but they look great just sitting around it on the table LOL I cut out the pattern for my belt. Dad came up with a pattern on the computer last night – he took the dimensions of my regular ANH belt, and…
