break out! before you get bum rushed

So guess what! I actually did some sewing over the weekend. Not a lot. And I didn't take any pictures. So uh... does it count? I'm not sure. Haha. But I'll get to that in a minute. Ok so first order of business is I saw a news story that The Princess Diaries is getting a 3rd movie. And that made me nostalgic for the books. I LOVED the books! ...

Sgt Pepper!

This will be a two parter today, I'll separate out costume and art stuff so this post isn't quite so massive.

Friday night took a break to watch the RPDR finale (Yay!) then back at it - Saturday morning got up, headed on out to my parents' house ...

when there was a shushing

As an addition to the proceeding story! One time at my Mema's, we rented Urban Legends and me, Rach and Cath watched it in the blue room. It wasn't scary (I just refused to watch the microwave part), but later that night when Rach and I were trying to go to sleep, Rach had, as we say, a "super freak out." All of a sudden she grabs me. "KELL! Somebody ...
