I know I just posted yesterday, it's dragoncon season, I'll post as much as I want. I came up with what I think is my finalized line-up. So let's go through 'em, because I was finally able to order a ton of stuff yesterday and I have a better trajectory than I did in yesterday's post. 1. Wanda Got my HTV ordered and it'll be here thursday. I also bought boots! ...
Well this was probably the most disappointing Halloween in a long time. Since the only people who see me at my job are my coworker and my boss, and it was cold that day... I just wore Chase's Spike kigu to work over regular clothes. Over the weekend I decided that for Halloween night, I'd wear my DCNU Wonder Woman to hand out candy. It needed some repairs, so I ...
IT'S HALLOWEEN YALL! We had a really fun weekend. Friday night started with cooking dinner and settling in on the couch to start watching Stranger Things 2. We got through 2 episodes that night. Saturday morning we slept in a bit, and then I started getting ready. (How to tell a photoshoot is happening at my house) We had very pleasant weather last week (70s mostly) and then overnight Friday it got ...

I've finished my Dorothy costume and have added it to my portfolio!
Hope everyone had a great Halloween! Picture Gallery - including Pumpkinfest this past weekend, us at the zoo, and last night! I finished Dorothy and wore it to work Halloween day, and to hand out candy that night... And took some pics with Kes :) This past weekend we did Pumpkinfest in Franklin, and did the zoo troop again! Here's a group pic at Pumpkinfest, from Glenn: And I wore Belle ...
This weekend is Horrorfest; I'm trying to get Hoth Leia finished for it. I worked a little bit last night, but the sewing machine was being horrid to me so I quit (I swear, the needle came unthreaded three times in the space of, like, 5 minutes. The last time I just quit. I had been up since 5:45 yesterday, so I wasn't in the best mood to begin with.) Tonight I ...
I worked for a while tonight, and got some good stuff done! Padme's Nightgown - Got the basic thing put together. I really don't like this McCall's pattern - it's strange. I used it for the basic pieces, made it larger to take out the fitted aspect of the bodice, and completely eliminated the bonig. The way they had the straps being made was tedious and didn't work well with ...
fabric finds this weekend: My grey/slightly purple satin for Lois that I found a couple of months ago.. they still had it, and I got it for 50% off, yay. Material for the inner dress for Padme's funeral dress... most expensive thing I got today, but well worth it, I love it. Dorothy fabric The rest of the stuff I needed for hoth Leia Greyish blue matte sain for padme's ...
In other news, I'm in Nashville and will hopefully be in fabric heaven this weekend - with the Columbus Day sales, I'm hoping to pick up at least a few key fabrics I need. I've got a 50% off one item at Joann's and a $50 gift certificate to Hancock's... and I'm going to fancy fabric store (I don't know the name of it) just to look and drool LOL On my ...
