Snow White + Graveyard Party pics

I ran out of time because I ended up having to be at my aunt's house an hour earlier for Trunk or Treat than I expected... I didn't get a chance to make attach my bows or put the snaps on the upper part of the cape to keep it in place... but all nitpicky, I'm really happy with it. The rest of the Halloween pics - pics from Trunk ...

Snow White finished!

Well, almost. Snow White as of last night. The skirt is finished but I may rehem it, it's still a little longer on (with the shoes) than I wanted. The cape is not anywhere finished... that's just my fabric pinned on to see how it would look LOL The collar is also just pinned on, there's a lot of extra fabric around the neck that will be underneath the bodice ...

More Snow White progress

I still haven't finished the back of the bodice but I went ahead and started on the sleeves. The sleeves are mostly finished here but not attached, just quickly pinned on for a pic.

Snow White updates, SW Family Fun Day Pics

I've been working on my Snow White costume for next weekend... it's coming along. I've got no decent pics to show of it, just a few iphone pics - As of last week: my shoes: and as it was yesterday morning: It's hard to tell but I decided to take the center piece of piping out. I'm hoping to finish the bodice today, and get started on the sleeves. Last ...

Ceremonial Leia v.2 ...

when the power was out

So, the rain has stopped, for a while, anyway. Due to the fact we haven't had much rain around here lately, we didn't get flooded - even though it rained ALL night, our neighbor's front yard wasn't flooded (and it always floods when we get a lot of rain - the front part of his yard is very low, kids used to go swimming in it after a rain). I ...

Disney Princess Costumes FINISHED

All the princesses are done :) Cinderella looks a bit dumpy in that picture because it doesn't fit my dressform - the yellow tint of the ceiling light looks pretty icky on it, too. Snow White's collar isn't perfect, but it'll do. All is done on Ash's costume except putting the zipper in - that'll be the only thing that has to be done tomorrow. Oh, and I have one little ...

Princesses & Leia Rebel updates

Yesterday I went to Hancock for some last minute things. I also got some done on Leia.

For Leia, I need to make the vest, put the pockets on the sleeve, ...

Haven't gotten much done the past couple of days. Right now, I've got the dressform w/Belle on it sitting in the living room and the puppy is running like a crazy person in circles around it. Hee. I've packed a bit the past few days, finally got stuff out from San Diego and moved it to new boxes, haha. Mostly doing old repair work today. Yesterday all the girls ...
