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…

hooked on a feeling
Today I have the last bit of photoshoot stuff to post! And I’ll also say the website is fully updated, 2020 projects added, new photos added (except Hera, she was the last set, I’ll get her added soon.) Hera photos! Very happy with these. Padme nightgown shots! I did some with and some without the baby bump. I like the…

a 4 day weekend and nothing to show for it
Like seriously I don’t have much of anything to post today. I had big plans for the weekend… I took Thursday off, and had Friday off. Pretty much everything got derailed. One of the main projects I wanted to work on this weekend was redoing my closet. I didn’t get to do that because… oh wait. Did I ever mention…

imagine a world where time has no meaning
because that is the world I am living in. It’s like time stopped in March and there is nothing to delineate the days from each other except some days I have to sit at a work computer in one room and some days I lay on the couch with my switch. Like I go outside and it’s like… how is…

sew what
Oh look another weekly blog post where I have nothing to talk about because I can’t go anywhere and everything is canceled and I have no motivation to do anything. Well actually we did go to Home Depot last week. While there we got paint for the upstairs bathroom so we can finally start redoing it. I was going to…

a little bit of happy
I’m starting off this week’s post with maybe a heavy link: The Discomfort You’re Feeling is Grief. My aunt sent me this this morning and it put a word to the way I’ve been feeling. I hadn’t thought of it as grief. Sadness, disappointment, frustration, anxiety – but grief sums it up best. So now that that is out of…

well im still here
I was supposed to finish up moving my site last week but I still haven’t done it. I mean all the content is moved I just haven’t repointed the domain yet. I guess at this point I’ll try again tomorrow and for now go ahead with my weekly post… otherwise I don’t think I’d ever get around to posting this…

2007 in review
Well since I’m mostly done for the year – outside of my little secret project – I’m gonna go ahead and post this. I’ve had it done for a while actually LOL At the beginning of the year, this is what I wanted to accomplish… keeping in mind that when I wrote this, Chase hadn’t proposed yet and changed a…

DRAGONCON 2007 PICS!
Well, actually I’ll start on Thursday 🙂 Thursday morning was a mess, I was running every which way trying to finish packing, finish a few non-costumey projects (Costume Monkey shirts for the girls) and getting the van loaded before Chase got home at noon. My boxes and stuff, almost packed. My cousin Catherine was volunteering this year. She needed to…

Lots of Progress Pics, Ackbar, WW, etc
Friday, Ash came over and we ate spaghetti and pizza and worked on stuff. But first, I went to get my petticoat and discovered it’s got dogs. I guess that’s what I get for putting it next to her kennel. Geez. And when Ash came over, she brought her new friend. Aren’t they cute together? Man I love that mask.…

Updates on everything, KC WW, Boushh, etc
I did not get as much done this weekend as I would have liked, but things are coming along. One thing I didn’t get a picture of was my upgraded Wonder Woman tiara – I finally found a star the right size and shape, and Chase painted it and attached it last night, and buffed the whole thing. I still…

Marasiah and Endor Leia progress
I finished the designs on marasiah, yesterday, and also got my boots attached. Most of yesterday was spent on my endor poncho. I had to remake it – I’ll explain why, later. It didn’t take long – probably two hours, and I fixed some of the problems with the first one. Last night we ended up mostly doing nothing —…

to-do list 8/13/07
Aw. Marasiah and doll Leia may have to be on hold. I haven’t done anything with them in ages, and I’ve got so much left to do on everything else, I don’t know when I’d have time to finish them right now. I worked on my Boushh pants some more yesterday, got my boots painted, worked on the boot tops,…

Progress on everything
well, i can no longer get on the internet at home, something is wrong with my laptop’s wireless thingie. I can use dad’s computer, though, but I hate being cooped up in the computer room. I suppose it’s a blessing – keeps me working. Endor Leia – finished sewing the pleated section on the base helmet – donut is finished,…

KC WW, Endor Leia, Boushh, and Marasiah Progress
Chase clear-coating the Wonder Woman helmet sculpt again before it gets cast. My endor trooper Leia helmet donut as it was yesterday evening – since then it’s been weathered and the red/yellow symbol added. Still needs a bit more weathering, but I’m very pleased. Boushh helmet getting its first shot of paint. Like the endor donut, this has since been…

Progress & Schedules
Well, I wrote out my packing list last night. And right now I’m apparently trying to take 18 costumes to Dragoncon. So, it’s gotta be cut somewhere. At least by 3. I’m ok taking 15, but not 18! Anyway – I haven’t done much lately. Work has been absolutely exhausting this week (I’ve been the only one in the back…

another weekend, another set of mosquito bites
Yep, despite having doused myself with Off last night, I still got about 9 bites while outside dyeing my Endor poncho yesterday evening. I have decided to make a little experiment of them, and trying various home remedies… so far using deodorant seems to be the best. Well enough about that, this is my costume journal not my mosquito bite…

Updates & Ewok Village Leia Pics!
I’ve been pretty well KO’ed by sinus mess for a week and a half or so now… sucks! I think it’s behind me now, though. Here’s a few quick updates… Doll Leia – got the bottom and top made, the top needs to be fixed (one side hangs funny, need to pick it out and do it again), and needs…

Travel for Dragoncon is finally completely arranged! We’ve had our room at the marriott for a while; but we rented our van last week. We paid a little extra to be able to pick it up the wednesday before and drop it off tuesday instead of monday. So we don’t have the rush trying to check out monday and get…
