It's that time of the year again... time to see what I accomplished this year, what I didn't get to, and what I did instead of doing the things I said I was going to do. So last year I said my goals for 2017 were: 1. Georgian Belle – as I said above, finish it up for Visioncon. Did I?! Not really. I redid the wig, twice - once for Visioncon, and ...
I'm really itching to get started working on stuff. Here's some thoughts on things. 1. Donna Noble - Unicorn & the Wasp I was supposed to pick this up again after Dragoncon and of course I have not. I do still plan on finishing it, it's all sitting in a box waiting on me to come back to it. 2. Georgian dress I want to do another one of these, in pink, ...
So at the beginning of 2012, this is what I said I wanted to get done: Romana II - did it! Donna Noble Silence in the Library outfit - did it! remake Belle (maybe… had this one on my list several times and have never gotten to it) - did it! (finally!) Wasp (been suggested several times so I might finally do it) - did it! Cinderella (maybe) - nope! Had ...
I finally put together a 2012 schedule! 1. Belle's blue dress - I've been posting a bit about this - I started on this in 2009 and never finished it. I picked it up again last month and its getting close to being done. (more…)
It's that time of the year! Beginning of this year these were my plans: Enchantress - done! Alternate Wonder Woman - aka Hippolyta - done! Lady Blackhawk - done! Rogue - done! Marie Antoinette - done! Charlotte (Princess & the Frog) - no :( Ms Marvel red suit/Moonstone - done! Disney character - no :( TV character - no :( That's probably the best I've ever done actually doing what I said ...
So here's what I've got planned for now. March projects: already underway. Enchantress: quick and easy. DC Character: light on sewing. more of a crafty-thing. April projects: Lady Blackhawk: all sewing. Donna: piece-mealed, will probably make the jacket. (I'm hoping to actually start on these in March and move everything up a bit.) May projects: Marie Antoinette: just starting on it May, don't plan to have it done within the ...
(I realize I have this post on my blog basically twice - but one version was imported over from livejournal and I wanted to preserve it and its comments. This version is the livejournal post.) I can't believe 2010 is already over. Seems like just a few weeks ago I posted my 2010 plans. I didn't do very well in terms of doing what I said I was going to do LOL ...
So at the end of 2009, this is what I said I wanted to accomplish this year: 1. Bespin Leia - still not a thing done :) dang it. 2. Belle's Ballgown - same. :) dang it. 3. Batgirl - nope. dropped it due to $$. 4. Belle's Christmas Dress - nope. just never got to it. 5. Ame-Comi Black Canary - nope. replaced it with a different Ame-Comi. 6. Magik from New Mutants - yes! 7. Marie Antoinette - nope. ...
I've printed off pics of all the costumes I'd like to do next year, to try to narrow down the choices. I've got it down to 13, and I intend to pare it down to 10. So far I've got - (and yes I'm being secretive until I've decided for sure) Rogue #1 Rogue #2 Wonder Woman-based character Disney character Ms Marvel red suit Movie character Power Girl Lady Blackhawk Belle Marvel character #1 Marvel ...
Dragoncon kinda signals the end of the "season" for me - I generally start thinking about next year around this time of the year. So here's my thoughts for next year... Halloween/GMX: Not making anything new for GMX - but I'm going to make Briar Rose for Halloween. I need to finish off my new Aurora wig I bought last year, and it'll be pretty simple. For GMX, provided ...
