I would like to put in a complaint…
…that weekends go by way too quickly. So anyway. Got a bit done this weekend. Got the laundry room nearly put back together. It looks nice. Very happy. I’ll post a pic soon. Finished up my Donna top, and nearly got Romana finished except I ran out of bobbin when I had about 5 inches left to go hemming it.…

Romana, plus comments
Got the skirt sewn in and the sides sewn up last night! I’ve got to fix a little fit issue on the top, and hem it. Then to find a shirt, a tie, a wig, socks and shoes. I’ve had the worst time looking for shoes for this. I haven’t decided if I’m going to look for a blazer or…

Romana + house work
The house is still a disaster thanks to us painting the laundry room, but it’s getting there. I forgot to take a before-photo of the laundry room before we took everything out, and before we stacked the washer and dryer. But here it is pre-painting: Only room in the house we’ve never done anything to – that floor tile is…

House work: Guest Bath
Working on the house again! I repainted the hall bathroom this past weekend. Third time since we’ve moved in. Here’s a quick history of the hall bathroom! When we moved in – it had wallpaper, which we took down. First I painted it green, because green is my fav colour and this was the one room we could agree on…

Romana II in-progress
Made some progress on Romana this past week. I started out with a pdf pattern, drew out the pieces on newsprint and cut them out of some $1 a yard fabric I’ve had hanging around. Took it part and used it to cut out my black fabric (leftover from Lady Blackhawk!). I got the top pieces put together with their…

Costume sketch for Winnie Sanderson – making for Catherine. Just a rough sketch to get the basic idea of the shape of the robes/dress.

Panorama of my Sewing Room
Cleaned up my office last night since I had bridesmaids coming over to try on their dresses I had altered. It’s definitely grown more cluttered since I started out with one bookshelf and a desk! I just have too much stuff and nowhere else to put it (*). (*) – I really need to clean stuff out and get rid…

Art Post: Unfinished Costume Art
So I was trying to do this project where I was drawing each of the costumes I’d done, so I could use them as the reference in each portfolio entry — that way, I’d have a good full-length view of the costume I’d made for the viewer to compare. I actually got a few done before I abandoned the project…

In 2012 I did this little project where I was trying to draw the characters I’ve costumed as — just quick little simple things I could use as the “reference image” on my costume site. I only got a few done before I decided I wasn’t going to use a reference image at all on my site anymore LOL So…

Donna Noble in-progress
I got a lot done this weekend! I made several orphan dresses for a middle school production of Annie, and then nearly finished my Donna Silence in the Library top. The shrug is just a stand-in til I make my own. (I picked that one up for this costume but I think it’s too light, so I’m going to make…

New Leia pics
Did a quick photoshoot this weekend and got some new senatorial Leia pics on the white backdrop. There are a few more on my smugmug page, and I’ll add them to my Leia page soon.
