Got one more Christmas present from Chase. My work phone needed a case so Carrie Fisher in a garbage can seemed perfect. Got a good bit of sewing done this weekend. Not as much as I wanted... another storm, another migraine. But made good progress anyway. More work on the underdress. I decided to change the shape of the top and make it more curved - that straight across cut ...
A couple of old pics! vroom vroom... I will stab you... Winning a Frodo statue at Dcon 2003...
First off - I actually won the Amidala Look a Like Contest at Cosplaylab. I couldn't believe it, there were so many good entries, and people I knew - I was hoping to get maybe honorable mention, but - yay! It made my weekend. SO I didn't get Yuuko *completely* finished - I'm going to get it finished for MTAC next year. I didn't attach the sleeves to the bodice, ...

Chun-Li: 65% - still got to make the actual dress part, oops Amalthea: 90% - was 100% until a small problem emerged and it had to go back in for repairs. ugh *hits head on the desk* I don't feel ...
