    2005 Year in Review!

    I ran across my original 2005 costume list on the Jedi Council boards, did I get it all done? I said I’d do: -Padme ep 1 Parade gown Done! Besides the Princesses, this was my biggest project of the year, and the one I worked on longest. I’m still quite proud of it -Qui-Gon Jinn for my father Done! It…

    First post of 2006

    So far so good in 2006. On Hoth Leia, I’ve gotten the bodysuit mostly put together. I still need to work on the way it fits around my upper legs, and I need to hem the bottom. Tonight I’m going to make the belt then measure off the places for the quilted areas and start on those. I’ll definitely have…
