islands in the stream
Busy weekend! Lots to talk about. Let’s do the weekend events first! Saturday we met Ash and Gabe for Midtowncon and lunch. I had been planning to wear my TOS uniform all week, I even decided on a new hairstyle (one of my fav things about that costume is the fun of getting to play with different hairstyles), made a…

may the 1st
It’s dad’s bday today! We went out for dinner Saturday night to a new korean bbq place. It was ok. Not like the one we had in NYC. I don’t have a lot of costume progress to show this week. I’ll chat about it at the end. New pin for the collection! A friend gave us some irises back in…

im trying my very best
This is going to be me this week. Because my boss is off at the trade show I usually go to also, so I’m captaining the office this week. And stuff always goes bonkers when she’s not here. I’m ok with the trade-off though. So I actually didn’t get to get a lot of sewing done last week, because we…

First up, let’s look at some sewing stuff. Last week I mostly focused on jedi Leia. My suede came in on tuesday so I…

yard sale weekend
This weekend was busy. Friday night was more work on the house, I got a little sewing in, but mostly it was getting ready for Saturday morning’s yard sale. Saturday we were up at 6AM. Chase ran and put the signs out and got breakfast. We’d put on the ad that we were open at 7 but of course people…
