I know I haven't actually updated on any sewing for a while - but that's coming very soon I promise :) Chase was asked to take part in this cable trade show for Turner networks in Washington DC, as one of several clonetroopers in their booth. I got to tag along as a handler :) It was nice quick little trip, we'll have to go back sometime since we didn't really have ...
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 ...
One of the Black Canary shots from last weekend - my favourite so far, haven't finished uploading everything yet, though.P
The photoshoots went great today, from what I've seen on Chase's computer I'm really pleased, especially with the Wonder Woman shots. I went ahead and uploaded one of my favourite Black Canary ones -- I should have the rest up on my flickr throughout the week.
1. Giselle I was really pleased with the updates to Giselle. An hour's worth of work turned it from a costume I really didn't care about to something I was really happy with. I actually wish I'd tossed it on on Monday at the con as well. I might wear it sometime at Halloween if it's not too cold out. 2. Black Canary This costume was SO freaking comfortable! I really fell ...
I've finished my Black Canary costume and have added it to my portfolio!
Sunday we slept in, then I put on Poison Ivy (I wanted to rewear Zatanna, but my feet said "NO!") and Chase and I went and had a little lunch. Then Chase remembered he was supposed to go to the clonetroopers.net lunch LOL. So he went to that, and I met up with Ash and we went shopping for a while. Didn't take any pics that morning (lazy!). Then ...
Ok I'm going to stop talking so much about my costumes and what I want to change, since I'll want to make a separate post about that later. But anyway - on to Saturday pics! Thank god for Ash! She came over to help us finish getting ready that morning - I was getting Starfire on for the very first time, and Chase was putting his clone on. There were ...
Hey guys... sorry I haven't posted in a few days!! Dragoncon was a blast, as always. I managed to come home with a nasty head cold so I've been kinda in-and-out of it since then. I finished uploading our photos today, though - had over 1000, almost filled up the memory card, LOL. I think I'll break up my posts by days... there's a lot of stuff to go through. Our ...
