what I finished, what I didn't get to, and 2010... Here's what I said at the end of 2008 that I'd like to do in 09... 1. Finish all those things I said I was going to finish this year, esp. Bespin Leia - HA! nope. 2. Silk Spectre I - yes! 3. Golden Age Black Canary - yes 4. Belle's Ballgown Remake - still no, waiting on Chase to finish Beast. 5. Princess Nuala - nope 6. Dawn ...
GMX was this past weekend, it was fun! I really liked the hotel - we could stand outside our 3rd floor room and look over into the main part of the convention/people watch. And the employees were really nice :) It was pretty laid back for us. Chase & Derek sat up a photo booth, I spent my time "helping"... which means just sitting around watching LOL We didn't do ...
I've finished my classic Black Canary costume and have added it to my portfolio!
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, ...
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 ...
Here's a pic I missed yesterday: My Wonder Woman bodice, and the start of my classic Black Canary suit. AND! Here's my finished Black Canary jacket: Seriously the easiest thing I've ever made. I had it started and finished in one night.
Well I haven't done much better about posting, have I? I finally took some progress pics so I actually have something to post today. Rogue (age of apocalypse version) is at about 75% done. From the top down... I've still got to trim the wig a little. I'm really happy with what I bought for it - the white part especially. Chase is making my collar tomorrow. Making it the same ...
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 ...
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 ...
