Below you’ll find my blog posts mentioning my original Mephisto (Faust) costume, which I designed in a college class and intended to make for Halloween 2005, but never finished.

2006 schedule
Atlanta St. Pat’s Parade I’ve never done this event before, and it’s still not 100% that I’m going to go, but if I can hitch a ride… Wearing regular Princess Leia, most likely, if not, battle Padme with new shinguards. MidSouthCon Friday I’ll just be there for a couple of hours most likely. I’ll be staying at the hotel sat…

2005 Year in Review!
I ran across my original 2005 costume list on the Jedi Council boards, did I get it all done? I said I’d do: -Padme ep 1 Parade gown Done! Besides the Princesses, this was my biggest project of the year, and the one I worked on longest. I’m still quite proud of it -Qui-Gon Jinn for my father Done! It…

Amidala Shoes, Parasol, Progress & Plans
I’ve actually been working on stuff! Yay, me. I finally got the serger correctly threaded to do the rolled edges for the petals, and have since made about 30 petals… and it was SO FAST!! *_* It would have taken me Iforever/I to do it on the regular sewing machine. I think I’m in love, haha. I painted my shoes…

Lots of updates and plans
I haven’t updated in a month! Good grief. Costume updates: Qui-Gon: No progress whatsoever. Ha, ha. Padme: I bought some more stuff (see below), and finally got the serger threaded correctly for doing rolled edges as of yesterday… but otherwise, nothing! Mara: I bought my fabric, shinguards, and goggles. I’m still trying to decide whether or not I want to…

when the exorcist killed my laptop
I watched The Exorcist on my computer the night before last. It was about halfway through, and my computer just shut down out of nowhere. It was plugged into the wall and everything.. it just shut down. It was creepy. Then last night, I watched the Director’s Commentary, which I always do. That’s a big draw for me, for a…

My new Serger! And Qui-Gon updates
As of yesterday morning I became the proud mom of my very own serger 🙂 I’m so excited! I can’t wait to start learning to use it. I have an appointment for weekend after next, the lady at the store is going to show me the basics. I saw Phantom of the Opera last night. Before I left the house,…

when livejournal was down
Remember how I posted about that church with the sign, and I was trying to describe the kind of things they put on there? I used “Seven days without prayer makes one weak” as an my example… Guess what their sign says this week? Weeeeird. Are they like, stalking me? LJ is down which kinda cancels the post I was…

Thinking
Semester before last in my Faust class, I did some costume designs for the three major characters in part one (Faust, Mephistopheles, and Gretchen), because I thought maybe I could make one of them as my final project (but I didn’t have time). I think I may work some more on one, probably either Meph’s or Gretchen’s (most likely Meph’s),…
