I'm just so tired and ready for all this stuff to be done. It's gotten to the point where I'm not even really thinking about dcon anymore, i'm just wanting all the costume stuff to be done for a while. All we've done the past month, every free minute, has been working on costumes. :P I've only got 2 more for the year - really, one and a half. Dorothy for ...
Handmaiden: I got the basic robe made. However I made a mistake and sewed the front together opposite - no worries, easy to fix, I'll just take it apart and switch the sides. I'm going to do that tonight. Tomorrow night I will do the designs... tonight I will start the beading. Mando: No major progress, except I found some fabric I already had I can use for the vest, ...
Now that I'm home from Comic Con (FINALLY!) - no time to rest, time to get started on Dragoncon stuffs! New stuff I'm working on: Handmaiden: I've been wanting to do handmaiden for ages.

Atlanta St. Pat's Parade I've never done this event before, and it's still not 100% that I'm going to go, but if I can hitch a ride... Wearing regular Princess Leia, most likely, if not, battle Padme with new shinguards. MidSouthCon Friday I'll just be there for a couple of hours most likely. I'll be staying at the hotel sat night this year, for the first time ever! Friday - Mara ...
I ran across my original 2005 costume list on the Jedi Council boards, did I get it all done? I said I'd do: -Padme ep 1 Parade gown Done! Besides the Princesses, this was my biggest project of the year, and the one I worked on longest. I'm still quite proud of it -Qui-Gon Jinn for my father Done! It wasn't perfect, far from it, but everyone recognized him as Qui-Gon. I ...
And now you guys may have seen me mention that I got the dogs' portraits done? LOL, feel free to make fun of me for being the sort of person who gets professionals pictures of their dogs, but I LOVE these!! I am so psyched we did this. Those are just my favourites, we got around 60 pics all together of both of them (none together though, that would have been ...
So I didn't get my Halloween costume done, but I did throw together a last minute Leia Ceremonial costume - > I'm going to be redoing it next year, with a better necklace, the proper length (due to me walking around too much for what I made it for, I made it ankle length), and adjust the fit in the neck area... and with a better fabric! I don't like ...
I've finished my ceremonial Leia costume and have added it to my portfolio!
