Jane and Ms Marvel updates

(This post was originally posted on Livejournal, and has since been ported over to my blog, so the content may seem a little redundant.) I finished Jane & Ms. Marvel yesterday! We're leaving Wednesday afternoon, we'll be into Anaheim that evening. Thursday - Disneyland. Friday, I'll be wearing Ms Marvel (Kevin is wearing a makeshift Tony Stark), and... I still haven't decided on whether I'm taking the new Wonder Woman ...

Jane updates, and Hoth Leia art

It's almost done. I just need to finish the belt and finish my other boot. I should be done tonight. Finally! (my dressform's neck is messed up so I can't fit my collar on it , which is why it's sticking up like that, I had to button over the top of the dressform LOL) I got to see both sets of my grandparents by surprise today. We ran over to ...

Padme art, Jane updates

Attacking Jane today, trying to get the skirt done. Also digging stuff out for packing. Still haven't decided what I'm taking outside of the new costumes and Ewok Leia. Either Wonder Woman or Scarlet Witch, probably. Chase has his last Grizzlies game of the year tonight, so I'll have plenty of time to work. today's princess is Padme's snowbunny suit :)

Ms Marvel updates

I had a hair appointment this morning... Frankie curled my hair and it looked totally cute all day :) Then I met Nana, Kristie, Ash, Hannah and Kevin at Steak and Shake for lunch, then while they all went back to work, I went home and sewed! And I finished Ms Marvel! I'm so relieved. It seemed like it was in a gazillion pieces to me with so much left to ...

Leia Ewok art

Weird day. My computer went down with a virus this morning, so I left it home running antivirus stuff... Chase got home and fixed it for me, everything seems to be good now. But it's always weird not to have my computer at work, plus Kevin had today off so it was really quiet in the office. I worked a lot tonight and I finally feel like I'm accomplishing something. ...

Happy Easter!

I forgot my sketch post yesterday :( I spent most of yesterday sewing. I finally got the skirt hemmed. It's not perfect but it'll do. Now I'm having zipper issues, I'll have to wait and tackle that again this afternoon. But I got my lace sewn onto the edge, and one spat made, and I made the back swoop-y piece, too. We went to see "How to Train Your Dragon" late ...

Jane progress

I do have a finished piece for tomorrow... I almost finished it tonight but ran out of time. I need to draw a few simpler things - these Amidala ones take too long! Anyway today's sketch... Poison Ivy It doesn't come across in the scan... but there was a delicate-ness to this sketch that I really liked. I stopped working on it because I knew if I kept going I ...

More Jane progress, kitchen updates

I got a lot of sewing done last night, enough to make me feel like I accomplished something. I got Jane's top done, except for the little belt piece. Got the zipper put back in, the collar finished, and the sleeves finished. I've got to make the separate little piece for the collar now, and like I said, put the belt piece on. Btw, here's pics of our kitchen cabinets ...
