My babiessss. Plus Horrorfest and Halloween 2005 Pics
And now you guys may have seen me mention that I got the dogs’ portraits done? LOL, feel free to make fun of me for being the sort of person who gets professionals pictures of their dogs, but I LOVE these!! I am so psyched we did this. Those are just my favourites, we got around 60 pics all together…

Ceremonial Leia
So I didn’t get my Halloween costume done, but I did throw together a last minute Leia Ceremonial costume – > I’m going to be redoing it next year, with a better necklace, the proper length (due to me walking around too much for what I made it for, I made it ankle length), and adjust the fit in the…

when i was too mean to be lily
So today I wore my Hermione costume without the robe to work. Cause it is Halloween and all, yknow. Well, I didn’t curl my hair. Or, I did curl my hair this morning, but it completely fell and doesn’t look like I did anything to it. So I said I wasn’t Hermione, I’m Lily. Kevin asked me who I was…

WTF
Suddenly, since just yesterday, this particular picture in my flickr account has over 1000 views. Previously my most viewed pic had around 150. Who the heck is linking this…?!

when i had done no work
Rough day at work :I haven’t done a darn thing on my halloween costume, either. I don’t have anything done for class tomorrow. I’m going to go take a nap.

A few Horrorfest Pics
Halloween is 20 days away and I’ve done nothing on my Halloween costume. I’ve got all the stuff for it! I just haven’t done anything. But then, that’s to be expected, since I’ve been house sitting, and then out of town this past weekend. I’ve got a base hat I’m going to use. I need to strengthen the brim and…

when we went to hofest
Back from horrorfest, and finally done house sitting so I got to home last night!! 🙂 Got a bunch of mail to go through, but I got sgc_cosplay’s AWESOME birthday gift – I’ll post pics of it in my LJ tonight when I get home. Here’s a couple of Ho’Fest pics until I get the rest up and can do…

ranting
Last year I was bombarded with requests about how I made my Anna Valerious costume – understandable, since the movie was still pretty new, but I was still flabbergasted by HOW MANY times I was asked, to the point I just ended up saving a form letter on my computer with the info, and then I’d just copy and paste.…

Dressing a Galaxy
I got my Dressing a Galaxy today!!! It’s #809, signed by Trisha Biggar. And first off, it’s HUGE! I haven’t messed with a lot of it, because I want to show it off like it is now, all perfect and pretty. But I glanced through the book – AMAZING! I’m a little disappointed in the swatches I got. Some cool…

when i hated cossies
I really hate the word “Cossies” in place of costumes. It annoys me. I overlook it when people use it when talking to me, but everytime I run across it online it makes me want to shoot myself. Or someone else. (2016 EDIT: It’s 2016 and I still hate this word. Thankfully it seems to have died off.)

when a security guard got in my face
At Dragoncon, they have, in the past couple of years, had a ban on photography from like, 7-11 (or something like that) at night in the Hyatt. I completely understand their reasons for this (fire marshall – taking pics clogs up the paths too much, and there’s not much room over there). So I’m fine with the ban, I don’t…

More Belle Ballgown Pics
Took Belle pics today – Got ’em all here. A couple of my favourites: In other news… um, well, there is no other news.

Upcoming
I had to do a fabric store run for class the other day, and while I was there noticed they had the patterns on sale. I picked up the Simplicity Padme Battle suit/Aayla Secura pattern, the Jedi pattern, and also the McCall’s Lavender Nightgown pattern – I might throw that together for MidSouthCon next year, I like the pattern 🙂…

when i had to unpack
I found my embroidery sample, finally. Kes had gotten it, I think – it was under the ottoman. Today was fairly nice. I saw my grandparent’s new house, it was very cute! I really like it. I’m glad they’ve moved. I finally got my boxes back (they’ve been at my aunt’s house since they came back from FedEx) – I’m…

I think I was blowing a kiss? Aww. Here comes trouble Waving Running at the girls Stitch vs Belle Snow White fainting Take…

Post-Dragoncon 05 again
First and foremost I wanted to write about Stitch. Since I didn’t get to write about him at all while making him, since Ash wanted him kept secret. This project has been on my mind since April, when we first came up with the skit idea while swimming at C3. I started out by finding a front shot of his…

Dragoncon 2005 pics!
4th Year at Dragoncon! So! Thursday morning I got up and went over to Ash’s where my mum picked us up and took us to the airport. Ash and I sat around for a while after checking in. Anyway, Cat and Melissa met us there and… um, do any of you guys remember being in the airport after security? Cause…

ugh planes
Can I just be sedated until we get to Atlanta? We’re leaving for Dragoncon tomorrow, and I’m a bundle of nerves. For various reasons. Everybody keep your fingers crossed that everything goes ok tomorrow! But anyway, we’ll be getting into ATL around 4:30 tomorrow afternoon. I won’t be around the hotel that night, though – we’ve got tickets to see…

when the power was out
So, the rain has stopped, for a while, anyway. Due to the fact we haven’t had much rain around here lately, we didn’t get flooded – even though it rained ALL night, our neighbor’s front yard wasn’t flooded (and it always floods when we get a lot of rain – the front part of his yard is very low, kids…

Disney Princess Costumes FINISHED
All the princesses are done 🙂 Cinderella looks a bit dumpy in that picture because it doesn’t fit my dressform – the yellow tint of the ceiling light looks pretty icky on it, too. Snow White’s collar isn’t perfect, but it’ll do. All is done on Ash’s costume except putting the zipper in – that’ll be the only thing that…
