constant state of irritation
that’s me lately. no chill. just constantly, constantly irritated at EVERYTHING. Except cookies. And potatoes. Those are the only good things in life. I really don’t have much to post this week. I DID get my domain name moved Friday. At least, I thought it was over and done with but the new company this morning said my old one…

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…

Bodycasting, & New Belle & Padme White Backdrop Pics
In order to do my new Wonder Woman parts, Chase wanted to take a body cast of me. (Also will be for things in the future) So we did that today… it was so gross. And the best part? I totally passed out. For just a second or two, but I’ve never passed out before in my life, even last…

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…

TRU toy release pics!
We spent the entire evening after work trying to finish everything up on Chase’s clone… but we did manage to get out of the house before 11, so I was proud of that! LOL. We pulled up to TRU right after 11 and there were already a few people hanging around outside. The manager let us 501st folks in (we…

Snowbunny Padme preview!
I got my Snowbunny nearly finished tonight – all that’s left is for Chase to fix my belt – reattach the pouches and holster. I need to see if I can find my little Naboo blaster, I haven’t seen it in a while. Anyway, pic: I made the mockup for my WW bodice today, I’m pretty happy with it. It…

I’ve just about finished the snowbunny cape – I need to add the ties, the toppers for the boots and gloves, and fix my belt… please ignore the fact I’m in my pajamas LOL I got the glinda underdress dyed and dried and pinned on — unfortunately it doesn’t show up AT ALL once the outer dress is over it.…

Snowbunny and Glinda progress
I finished the basic cape for Snowbunny Padme friday – went home today and found my trim and started sewing it on tonight. Unfortunately I ran out of thread about half way through! Stupid tiny travel sewing kits. I’ve got about a foot of it pinned on, so despite the pic below it’s not as done as I’d like. Chase…

fabric shopping!
Went to the fabric store last night, it was a successful trip! I got the lining for the snowbunny cape, the yellow satin I need for the “special” belle. I got my pattern for the wonder woman bodice. But best of all I found fabric for Glinda that I just squealed when I saw it. At first I thought there…

So, Dragoncon Plans
Starfire – I got my wig, I need to start working on it – unfortunately my wighead clamp doesn’t fit on any of our new counters or tables! D: Hopefully it will fit on the new work table I get pretty soon. I’ve got my fabric, and I got my boots in the mail today. I order the bodysuit… and…
