Random Stuff
Hey! I’m behind on posting. Here’s what’s been going on lately. Last week I made a dress for a friend for Halloween! It’s not a great picture of it. The main part of the dress is a really neat, heavy matte knit that I really liked working with. My only issue was that I didn’t have the best needle for…

More art
Here’s ewok village Leia… And metal bikini Leia… I’ve been working on a Halloween costume for a friend and finished it up last night! It’s not the best pic of it but it’s all I’ve got.

Fixing stuff
Oh hi again! I haven’t updated lately… not much to update with, really. Been working on fixing broken images on my blog – so far I’ve gotten everything fixed back through 2008. Besides that, I did some art.

Oh hi blog
Sorry I haven’t posted in a while! Been busy… my birthday and then Las Vegas! Let me go back through my phone photos and see what I’ve missed. I got some very important fabric and a very important pattern (no clue what I’m doing with any of this, I just got it all for the stash.) And then I had…

Comments
This is something I hate to do but I’ve decided it’s best for my sanity. I have turned off comments for the time being. They will be turned on again on November 1st. Over the past few days I have gotten multiple comments regarding selling my costumes/commissions for Halloween. Most of them I have deleted, as I have text above…

Disney trivia!
We went to 90s Disney trivia at rec room last night at Rec Room. I’d never been there nor done any kind of trivia! My friend Lauren had rented out a living room space for us, so in between rounds we got to sit around and play mario kart and super smash brothers on the giant screen. It was awesome.…

More Dragoncon stuff
Some more of the Leia pictures… There were so many great Star Wars costumes there this year… but it’s been so long since I wore a Star Wars costume at a con that even while I was dressed as Leia I’d just walk right past them without thinking about it. Then later I’d be like…. I was dressed as Leia!…

Moaaaaaaar pics
Slowly getting Chase’s pics uploaded. Here’s a couple of Peggy from thursday: I tell you, taking those shoulder pads out made a huge difference. My neck doesn’t look so short now. Chase & I found an abandoned nook of the Hilton Saturday morning for the Doctor Who photoshoot and got some Donna photos… And then I MET A DOG DRESSED…

Dragoncon 2015: Costume recap
In (sort-of) order of wearing! 1. Peggy Carter I did some updates to Peggy – I took it up a bit through the waist and removed the shoulder pads, and fixed up the wig. It made a HUGE difference! The jacket fit much better and the wig looked way better, too. I just wish I could have had time to…

Dragon Con
We’re back! Time to recap… Wednesday We got up bright and early and were actually on the road at the time we wanted to be. I played a lot of tsumtsum (it’s been a while since I played). Once we got to Atlanta we got lunch (Takorea), then went and checked in and unloaded. And then off to ikea! Yay!…

You can find me at: The Vintage Vogue Fashion Show – Friday @ 1pm (Hyatt) The Post-Parade Doctor Who Photoshoot – Saturday @ 10:30am (Hilton Steps) Marvel Superhero Photoshoot – Sunday @ 3pm (Hilton Steps) The last two are dependent on the weather — if it’s raining it’s no go for me. I still don’t know when…

almost time
I spent friday night/saturday finishing up everything. I finished my wig for the pink dress, outside of trimming the lacefront (I should do that this afternoon instead of when we get there… I’ll do that at lunch), and made some hair decorations for it out of leftover materials. I put some snaps on the dress at the bottom to hold…

The light at the end of the tunnel
I’ve felt icky all week, the weather shifted and gave me a migraine and yesterday I just could not get it under control. It couldn’t make up its mind whether or not it was now a migraine or a sinus headache, which means I take one medication, it doesn’t work, take another, that doesn’t work, take another — ok that…

The Pink Beast’s Shoes
So a while back when I was hunting good wedge boots for Captain Marvel I stumbled across some of those cheap-o Halloween costume witch shoes. They were my size and they were only $5 on clearance. So I bought them. One day I will splurge on some American Duchess shoes, but for now, $5 is all this broke-ass can budget…

“Is it illegal to look in your neighbor’s mailbox?”
The things you find yourself doing during the Dragon Con panic. I’d been waiting on this package for a week… shipping had taken 3 days longer than I expected so I was already frustrated. I knew it was scheduled to be delivered Saturday so I checked the mailbox multiple times and nothing. It was well past the time our mail…

Werk
So yesterday I got the other sleeve finished off, and finished making my main trim. I put some chiffon and leftover silk on the dress to see if I liked the idea of doing a kerchief or a belt. I dunno. I’ll have to wait and see when I get closer to being done, I guess. Rest of my underskirt…

TRIM
So Monday after work I drove up to my grandparents’ and met them for dinner. My grandma had already gone and gotten my fabric for me! So that was really nice, I got my fabric and dinner with my grandparents and a little sewing break. So since my last update I’ve installed the hook and eye closures in the front…
