More Merida Progress
This is becoming much more involved than I had intended it to be… but only because I’m so pleased with it. So the other day I realized I had a great blue/green scarf that would look really nice as part of the sash. I hate to sacrifice it to the costume gods (I bought it on our 2012 Disney trip……

Merida progress
I worked on getting Merida mostly finished this weekend. Here she was on Friday: I had to get the other sleeve made and finished – I had all the pieces cut, so I figured it would be fairly easy, but it wasn’t. I had a hard time getting them to look the same and be even – I need to…

The Pitstains
So, I’m trying to play Sims 4 again. I’ve had it for a while, and I just have not been able to get into it at all. I play for like, 10 minutes and then turn it off. (I feel like I ought to just uninstall it and put Sims 3 back on my computer.) But I really felt like…

Halloween & sewing room
Chase gave me the pics he took on Saturday when I was in Anne! Showing my grandma pics on my phone… Kevin chilling out (his wig was making a backwards escape off his head…) The three of us I really need to learn that it doesn’t matter how good and balanced it feels on my head in the 10 seconds…

More office work
Last night after dinner we ran out to Hobby Lobby so I could get a couple more glass jars for beads (so I could free up our tupperware to return to the kitchen….) and Home Depot for some command hooks. It didn’t leave me a lot of time to work last night but I did make a dent. Over in…

The Deep Clean
I decided last night it was time to clean my sewing room top to bottom… as usual throughout the summer working on Dragoncon costumes things just get stuffed in places and things get disorganized, so it was time to redo! At first I was just going to clean up the two fabric bins I keep in my office for “current…

Halloween yay!
Halloween was fun! So, Friday, I “dressed up” for work. Basically I wore my Janet Snakehole wig and my April Ludgate work ID. Even thought it was just me and my boss in the office so I don’t know why I bothered! LOL And then Kevin tried on my wig… We thought about going out Friday night since there were…

Sleeves!!
So yesterday morning I had a little migraine and I took my medicine and ate my breakfast and usually after that, everything is cool. Well the medicine didn’t do anything and all morning it kept getting worse and worse. I hadn’t brought any more medicine with me because usually one dose is enough to at least last me through lunch.…

“Little” Merida
Some more progress on the “little” Merida dress. I keep calling it that in my head, it’s not really little… just, it’s not serious. So it becomes little Merida. The bottom hem was rolling up and exposing the crushed velvet right side. I thought that looked kinda neat. So I pinned the hem on the outside. I like it! I…

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…
