So let’s get back to Rebels Leia… Got the sleeves on, and a neckline facing added. Pants time! Decided to do the same thing I did with Wanda last year and use the lower half of a…

Now having (or close to having) 2 new Leia costumes in my repertoire, it’s really galvanizing me get moving on the movie canon costumes I’m missing, plus some other EU outfits I want to do.

dragoncon 2021

So instead here I am writing an extra blog post for the week because I’m having an irritating day and needed a nice distraction. Even though I kinda already went over this in a post a couple…

2020 wrap-up
I always looking forward to doing my end of the year costume wrap-ups. This year is sad. I really didn’t think a year could get worse than 2019 and that 2020 would be a great year. Instead we got a dumpster fire. I’m angry, sad, depressed. All I want is to get eat pizza in a restaurant. Anyway. I did…

i got the black lung, pop
No it’s not con crud. I’ve never really gotten con crud except that one time I came back from WSMI in Columbus sick in 2006. But the weather is changing and I’m still worn out from dragoncon so I feel like death warmed over. I slept a lot this weekend. Vague aches and pains in the back of my head/neck.…

2017 Year in Review
It’s that time of the year again… time to see what I accomplished this year, what I didn’t get to, and what I did instead of doing the things I said I was going to do. So last year I said my goals for 2017 were: 1. Georgian Belle – as I said above, finish it up for Visioncon. Did…

Costume-y Thoughts
I’m really itching to get started working on stuff. Here’s some thoughts on things. 1. Donna Noble – Unicorn & the Wasp I was supposed to pick this up again after Dragoncon and of course I have not. I do still plan on finishing it, it’s all sitting in a box waiting on me to come back to it. 2.…

May projects: Marie Antoinette: just starting on…

2010 wrap up…. 2011 plans
(I realize I have this post on my blog basically twice – but one version was imported over from livejournal and I wanted to preserve it and its comments. This version is the livejournal post.) I can’t believe 2010 is already over. Seems like just a few weeks ago I posted my 2010 plans. I didn’t do very well in…
