when i finished my elf cloak
Have a viddy at my purple cloak! I posted it over at my cosplay journal but figgered I’d better post it here, too.

Dazzler and Elf pics
I finished my purple cloak: I actually worked some on Dazzler last night- still not finished, but at least I did SOMETHING:

Capes, X-Wing Boxes, dogs
the workroom with pictures of what I’m working on now (plus a picture of arwen’s hope dress, which I’m NOT working on), and you can see my padme and quigon fabric on the far left. Ash’s nasty workspace!! all that styrofoam! Ash’s X-Wing Pilot chestbox in progress- looking awesome. My workspace – cutting padme petals for the cape. The cloak…

Shopping and Manga Belldandy updates
Fixed some random broken and non working things around the site. Any outside links should NOT open in these little windows – so let me know if you see any that do. I think I got them all but I can’t be sure. I finally decided on my second Dragoncon 2004 costume – I’m not telling what it is though!…

when I got a sword
My parents FINALLY gave in, after 3 Christmases of asking for it, they finally got me Glamdring (Gandalf’s sword). It’s SWEET!! Also some action figures, clothes, LOTR trival pursuit, lots of DVDs, purple velvet for a cloak. All in all a very good haul. I’m going to have breakfast and put my things away. Going to my aunt’s this afternoon…

ensconced in velvet
Mom gave me some purple velvet for Christmas to be used to make a cape. Buuut now I’m all tempted to make the Arwen Hope Dress with it instead. That’s my favourite dress from LOTR, I think… I love the colours. I’ll have to measure it and see how many yards I’ve got…

Baby Indy & Elf Cloak
Like I said at my blog yesterday, I had a bunch of film developed over the weekend and one roll was from four years ago. Look how little Indy is!! Annnnd I officially updated my site finally. I’ve been updating it little by little since the con in November, but I finally got the con report up, and announced the…

Elf cloak updates
I got the fabric for my cloak today. I knew I wanted velvet, like the Rivendell elves, but the green velvet I first chose was too expensive (even on sale… I needed 5 yards, and it was $10 a yard). So I got a deep, deep green, almost dark grey – I think it’s perfect. Mom insists it’s not green…

when somebody thought I worked at the fabric store
So we stopped by Hancock’s this morning before going to my grandmother’s, because mom needed another Santa I guess. I went over to the pattern books and was looking for a cloak pattern, just to see how much fabric they recommended for it. I was going back and forth between the books and the pattern drawers, because I kept forgetting…

LOTR Opening Costume?
I’m trying to figure out what to wear to the LOTR opening. I’m thinking of reusing my Hogwarts robe pattern and make a nicer robe of a different colour and just wearing that and my elf ears… oh I dunno. I refuse to wear a dress. Hrm any suggestions?
