Dragoncon 2009 Recap

I figured I'd better go ahead and make a decent post about the weekend before I start to forget LOL Thursday morning we managed to get out of town on time, even after going to Starbucks! Yay. Check-in at the hotel was crowded, it gets more crowded every year, more people tend to come in early these days, I guess. It took 2 bell carts (as usual) to get us inside, ...

3 days left… costume updates

I can't believe Dragoncon is upon us, and I can't believe how little I've posted this past month. I guess it's just been everything going on and the slight weirdness of not being in my own place while working. (On that note, though, it looks like we're closing on the house the day after we get back from Dragoncon. Kinda sucks, I wanted it the 15th to give a little ...

Anne Boleyn & other updates

Got the bodice put together on the big green thing, it was giving me fits last night, about to drive me crazy. I think I've got enough leaves from the last poison ivy leftover to do the next. It doesn't need as many leaves. I've got the bodysuit to dye, I think I'm going to have to go buy a few vines, though. In a quandary over Scarlet Witch - ...

Dragoncon costume updates

Everything i'm doing for Dragoncon is still so up in the air. We're trying to buy a house soon - like, very soon, by the end of July soon LOL I've been working as much as I can, but it's been difficult, we've been stuck house-sitting for almost 3 weeks, which has been a pain considering we need to be packing and everytime I try to sew, I get a ways ...

2008 in review

What I accomplished in 2008 (and what I didn't, LOL) Well it was weird year for me, costume-wise, because the first part of the year was eaten by my wedding, both financially and time-wise. I was still attemping to work on stuff - to make things that were easy, or that I already had material for. I think after the wedding and our move after everything kinda got settled I tried ...
