Thinking about costumes for next year..
Dragoncon kinda signals the end of the “season” for me – I generally start thinking about next year around this time of the year. So here’s my thoughts for next year… Halloween/GMX: Not making anything new for GMX – but I’m going to make Briar Rose for Halloween. I need to finish off my new Aurora wig I bought last…

Costumes I want to do, Part 4
Continuing Star Wars costumes I want to do! Bespin Leia – duh! I’ve had this sort-of put together since 2006. I pulled it back out earlier this year to start on it again – I’ve decided to scrap the material I had and start over with a different fabric. I’m hoping to have it done later this year. (edit: finally…

Costumes I want to do, Part 1

2008 in review
What I accomplished in 2008 (and what I didn’t, LOL) Well it was weird year for me, costume-wise, because the first part of the year was eaten by my wedding, both financially and time-wise. I was still attemping to work on stuff – to make things that were easy, or that I already had material for. I think after the…

The costumes that never were…
While cleaning the other day I came across printed references and drawings I’d gotten together for costumes I ended up not doing. I thought it would be funny to look back and see what I had planned to do, but never did. I tried to figure out the year/con I was planning it for, if I could remember. I didn’t…

Breha Organa
On a random note, sometime (more than likely next year, as I don’t have time for it this year), if Chase ever decides to make the Bail Organa costume, I seriously want to make Breha to go with it.
