    Revenge of the Sith Event Pics! And Plans

    Jupiter isn’t going to be ready for A-Kon. Why? Because it’s about two weeks til A-Kon and I haven’t bought a single thing for it. Which wouldn’t be a giant problem except I got so much left to do on Yuuko, there’s no time to worry with Jupiter. šŸ™ Oh well – I’ll do it for MTAC next year! Speaking…

    A-Kon woes

    I’m trying to figure out what else to take to A-Kon. Jupiter is NOT going to happen…if I rushed I could get it done… but I’m not all that excited to do it at the moment, I’d rather focus on the next Arwen, so I pushed Jupiter back to MTAC next year. Anyway – For A-Kon, I’m definitely taking regular…

    MidSouthCon is in a week and 2 days!! šŸ˜€ I’m so excited! The weekend is going to be so busy. Here’s the schedule: Friday: I’ll probably get there around 6:30 or so, get my badge… opening ceremonies are at 8 – I’ll be there in my Imperial Officer uniform. As soon as that’s over, I’m heading home and changing and…

    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…

    Possible Costume Lineups

    tentative schedule for next year: Shadowcon (jan 7-8, Memphis) nothing new – only going on saturday, will probably just wear Ozma. MidSouthCon (April 1-3, Memphis) Padme Parade gown (which is what I’m working on now – I have 3 months to finish it, so it *should* be done… if not, it’ll be at CIII) Celebration III (April 21-24, Indianapolis) Qui-Gon…

    Shadowcon

    I’m trying to figure out what I want to wear to Shadowcon. Heres the things I thought of: Anna – the only problem I’d have with this is curling my hair, and it would be cold. Arwen Wedding – it’s such a pain to wear, and the fabric on the sleeves is pulling apart – if I wear it again…

    Upcoming Con Schedule

    I got mine and my father’s plane tickets for Celebration III – now I just need to get Ash’s. I registered for Akon. Next year… I was thinking of going to Numa Rei No Con in february, but I’m thinking that might put the squeeze on the finances. I may or may not go, it’s going to depend on how…

    2005 Convention Schedule

    For Halloween this year- Meg from Hercules. Debating on getting a wig and styling it, or just slumming it and doing my own hair. I’m leaning towards my own hair, just to save money and since it’s just a halloween costume, anyway. MidSouthCon- Classic Leia for MidSouthCon next year. I want to make an actual *decent* looking one (as opposed…

    Updates & Dcon 04 Schedule

    Man the last few days have been hectic beyond belief! I’ve finished Ozma, Lessa and Hermione. I’ve made 2 sets of hobbit feet and painted two sets of hobbit ears and put in countless grommets (but that’s ok because I love putting in grommets!) Padme and Ash’s masquerade costume are the only things left. For Padme, the headpiece is nearly…

    Thoughts on SDCC

    I’ve decided not to take Hild to Comic Con, cause the wig is just a pain to transport. So I’m thinking of replacing it with either my Padme Rainbow gown or my Gryffindor Quidditch uniform. I”m leaning more towards my Quidditch uniform, since I’ve never worn it anywhere and it would be something easy to wear at night when nothing…

    mtac 04 Plans

    OMG I had my Amidala Lake Gown on the floor, and Indy found it, started scratching around on it to lay on it! I was like “NOOOOO!” I know I shouldn’t leave it on the floor, but she’s never try to sleep on my clothes before, she always finds a blanket. Crazy dog! I have nothing done on my cousins’…

    when i went over my schedule

    Argh. I came over here to write something important, and now I’ve forgotten it. Must have not been too important. So I’ll do something else. Got my Katsucon prereg confirmation today. We’re flying out Thursday night (the 12th), layover in Atlanta, arriving in Washington just after midnight. Yuck. Leaving kinda early that Sunday morning, so I won’t be doing any…

    Belldandy updates & SDCC plans!

    Finally got my blue material for Bell, and all the stuff I needed. And white suede. Yum šŸ™‚ Booked my hotel for Comic Con today, also. I have no idea who is going me – at this point me and Ash definitely. I really wish Cath and Melissa to come, but I just don’t know at this point. Either way…
