Friday, Ash came over and we ate spaghetti and pizza and worked on stuff. But first, I went to get my petticoat and discovered it's got dogs. I guess that's what I get for putting it next to her kennel. Geez. And when Ash came over, she brought her new friend. Aren't they cute together? Man I love that mask. YUM! Chase says, put the camera down. So Saturday came ...
Did a lot of stuff yesterday. KC WW- My shins wings got painted. Finished the other shoulder piece and got it pinned in, fixed the cape, painted the round cape pins and put them on. Made a new skirt mock up that is MUCH better. Finished the belt. Today -- get the wing harness situated, focus on the WW for the chest, figure out how to attach the cape, and ...
Finished my Boushh boots! I gave up painting the darn things in covered them in the same suede. They look pretty spiffy; I'm pleased. Chase finished putting snaps in my new slave Leia skirts. I tried it on with my new boots and I love it, am once again pleased. Tried on all my finished or near finished Boushh parts -- discovered a few things that need to be fixed. ...
Boushh pants are nearly done! I like how they look. They really just need weathering, now. Chase worked on the helmet for a long time last night, too. He got most of the leather on, I think. We're still fighting with the cummerbund pieces, though... hopefully we'll get them done soon. I worked on WW for a long time last night, because Chase finished the grommets for me. I was ...
Finished padme last night. I can pack her up. And my new slave leia boots, and dyeing my endor poncho. It's a little on the light side, I may dye it again -- AFTER Dcon. I'm tired of fooling with it, now. Chase worked on my Boushh helmet most of the night, and we started attaching my Boushh knees. Tonight, more Boushh knees, Wonder Woman stuff, and Marasiah stuff. One ...
I did not get as much done this weekend as I would have liked, but things are coming along. One thing I didn't get a picture of was my upgraded Wonder Woman tiara - I finally found a star the right size and shape, and Chase painted it and attached it last night, and buffed the whole thing. I still need him to finish my other metal pieces and buff ...
I finished the designs on marasiah, yesterday, and also got my boots attached. Most of yesterday was spent on my endor poncho. I had to remake it - I'll explain why, later. It didn't take long - probably two hours, and I fixed some of the problems with the first one. Last night we ended up mostly doing nothing -- I read a lot, we went to the grocery store, ...
I actually got quite a bit done last night! Doll Leia is done, except for the belt, which will take all of 10 minutes to do, and putting a fastener on the collar. It cracks me up, I don't think I've ever made anything so dumb looking LOL. Finished my endor helmet - added the bill. Fixed my rebel Leia shirt. Boushh tunic is completely done, and we boiled the knees ...
Didn't feel very well last night - so I spent a while just laying in bed, watching Law Order and sewing on the rest of the bloodstripes, and picking out that seam on doll Leia I needed to. I finished both! Hurrah, I guess, LOL. Before that I did get my Boushh tunic cut out. Somehow one of the front pieces is smaller than it should be, but a little ...
I've started having dragoncon dreams - a little later than usual! Two weeks from now I go pick up the van... eek. We're actually hoping to be in Atlanta around 7 or so on Thursday. That's the earliest we've ever gotten there, except for 2005 when we got there Thursday afternoon because we had Phantom of the Opera tickets. Anyway - we figured out the Boushh knees last night, and Chase thinned ...
