Princesses & Leia Rebel updates
Yesterday I went to Hancock for some last minute things. I also got some done on Leia. Working on Snow White’s collar now – once I finish that, all I need to do is add the cuffs, and do the bows for the shoes and hair, and finish her slip. Reckon I can do that today. For Leia, I need…

Cinderella progress pic
Cinderella: Anyway, the corset wasn’t finished when I took this tonight (it is now). The only thing left to do is fix the hem (it was screwy first time around) and add the silver parts to the shoulders (where those straps are hanging down, that’s what they’ll be attached to), and the parts to the hips, and her neckband –…

when i couldn’t tell if spiders
OOOOOOOOH! Now I remember what I was going to say! So this afternoon, I was working hard on stuff. I had been cutting and shaving foam rubber for a long time, and it was everywhere, and I felt yucky. So I went to take a shower. So I get in the shower, turn it on, and notice someTHINGS floating in…

Two more weeks… Cinderella and Stitch updates
Due to the internet being down today, plus actually feeling pretty well for the first time in a few days, I managed to get a bit done today. On Ash’s costume, I got quite a bit done. I redid one part of it to look much better, and finished one of the major pieces. I had been putting that particular…

Finished Belle! Preview Pic
Finished it!! Well, except for the yellow hairband, and I didn’t have my hair fixed (I just threw it up like this), but here it is… I’m very pleased with it! Cinderella is getting there, too… I still need to hem the skirt, hem the corset, put the boning in, put the grommets in, and do the silver parts on…

Snow White and Cinderella Progress Pics
Haven’t gotten much done the past couple of days. Right now, I’ve got the dressform w/Belle on it sitting in the living room and the puppy is running like a crazy person in circles around it. Hee. I’ve packed a bit the past few days, finally got stuff out from San Diego and moved it to new boxes, haha. Mostly…

Belle progress…
Hee!! I’ll be finished with Belle tomorrow. I finished the bodice today, all hemmed, got the grommets in, and all. I’ve still got to do the shoulder pieces and put the jewels on but neither should take long. Yay 😀 Also made more good progress with Ash’s costume, I’m very pleased with how it’s coming out. Those two things are…

Man
Aw man. The 501st photoshoot at Dragoncon is set for 2pm! Instead of in the morning! Which means I can’t do it. It’s smack in the middle of the day. I was planning on putting on Mara in the morning for the photoshoot, and then switching to Starfire until the masquerade, since wearing Star requires time to put on/take off…

Fabric Shopping… Princesses, Rebel Leia, etc
Today’s fabric store run proved very fruitful!! For once. I got the bulk of Ashley’s fabric. I’m not using what I got the other day, I don’t like it. Not only am I happy with the colour this time, but they actually had enough of it!! Pink and yellow chiffon for Polychrome – the two colours they didn’t have at…

Beading the Organza
I finished beading the organza last night (“Beading the organza”… sounds like a euphemism, haha) and finished part of the bodice. I hope to have Belle done this weekend, along with completely finishing Cinderella and Snow White’s skirts, and getting a start on their bodices. I reckon I’ll have all three finished by next weekend. Hopefully. Also got a start…

Random thoughts
#1! Our Rebel Legion base split – Freedom Base is now just the upper states (VA, NC, SC, DC) which meant our area (TN, KY, AL and MS) needed a new name – Ash and I were talking about it a while back and I told her I wanted it to be named Corellian Base. We both loved that name…

Belle, Cinderella, Snow White, Rebel Leia progress!
For Belle… I’ve still got to hem the skirt, but I got the overlay finished and I’m about halfway through beading it. I got my shoes and spruced them up a bit, they’re so gaudy they crack me up 😀 Tomorrow I’m going to tackle the rest of the skirt, and try to finish the beading so I can go…

Belle Gloves
I got my gloves and Cath’s gloves in the mail today – Cath’s are perfect, but mine were too light. (very, very pale yellow) I got some dye out and dyed them – they turned out pretty good. They match the fabric pretty well now. Am pretty happy. I got my basic skirt made for Belle, and laid out the…

Dragoncon 05 Projects
Went on a buying spree this morning! First, the Disney project: Belle (Me) It’s coming along. My mom’s ballroom hoopskirt is perfect for it. I got my yellow-gold material for the dress – it’s exactly what I wanted from a few months ago. At first I couldn’t find out and was bummed because I didn’t like anything else at the…

when we flew over the grand canyon
So, San Diego report! Wednesday! We got up at 4AM, went over to Ash’s house and picked her up. We got to the airport a little before 5 and got checked in. Nothing was open so we just had to sit around. We ended up in like, the loser part of the airport I’d never been in before. So we’re…

Comic Con 2005 Pics!
I’m still in San Diego – our flight is at 12:30 today… we’re already packed so we’re just hanging out in the hotel room. I do NOT feel good… I woke up this morning with my eyes and throat hurting – this is what Ash and I call the “Famiglia.” Don’t ask. Now I get to look forward to travelling…

Hallo from SDCC 2005! A few pics
Moooore San Diego updates!! There is still a TON of stuff (action figures, statues, displays, etc) I need to get pictures of – I’ll probably get most of them Saturday when I’m in Starfire, easier to move around in 🙂 This morning was the Rebel Legion breakfast/group photoshoot – pics from earlier today and last night are up now: Thursday…
