Batgirl & stuff

Saturday I got to spend a few hours as Batgirl at the Jackson Generals Superhero night! It was really fun though I absolutely burnt up! I have a handful more; but all these were just taken on Chase's iphone because I forgot my real camera at my grandma's house! It was super hot, I had to take several breaks to take the cowl off and cool down. I was never ...

2013 Year in Review

2013 on its surface looks like I was a lazy bum on the sewing front this year. So, first, let's look back at what I said I wanted to accomplish in 2013: Romana I Yes! I actually did this one! Yay! an Edwardian dress No. I did a ton of planning for it, got fabric samples, and then decided it was going to be too much work the way I was wanting ...

New Photos!

I've been adding a lot of new photos over the past few weeks! I've got new pics for Batgirl, Ripley, Utena, and Belle's blue dress! And I finally finished adding pics from Halloween to that set in the events section.

Batgirl Pics

I'm in love with the shots we took on the white back drop after MCFC! There were so many I liked I had trouble weeding them down to pick out which ones to post. But here's a few. My favourites are up in my portfolio and the rest are over at my flickr account.

MCFC!

Been busy the past few days! But Saturday we headed over to MCFC for a few hours, and it was a lot of fun. I wore Batgirl. Although since I'd curled my hair AND it was warmer out than I'd thought it would be (thus I was quite toasty) I never wore the cowl at the con, just carried it. We met Jess Harnell who was SUPER nice: And shopped. ...

Dragoncon Costumes: Everything Else

Thoughts & Pics on all the "old" stuff I wore this year... 1. Belle I wore Belle Friday morning for a while. Had wanted to wear it again but didn't get a chance. (Well, that's a lie, there were chances... I just didn't have the energy for it!) I love how it looks with my Marie Antoinette hoops, and really happy with the wig now that I restyled it. If I'm ...

Dragoncon 2013!

Well I've been home from Dragoncon for a few days but haven't posted a thing here - sorry! It was a good year. Even though I felt like i was a day ahead the whole time (Thursday felt like Friday, Friday felt like Saturday) by the end of it, it felt like it had rushed by way too fast. I was so bummed on Monday because I didn't want it ...

More from yesterday

SO I already posted about yesterday a bit, but here's some more. I was up really early yesterday thanks to a migraine, so I got up and ran out and bought a garment rack. It's been driving me crazy and holding up my packing progress to not be able to bring my costumes I need to hang up into the living room where I'm packing. Here's what I got: I ...

4 Day Weekend

I had a 4 Day Weekend this past weekend - I had Thursday and Friday off to sew. I didn't get much of anything done because I've had so little to work on. Today is also the 5th day in a row I've woken up with a migraine. I mean, my medicine takes care of it in like 15 minutes, but it's still a pain. I've never had one longer than 3 days, ...

Donna Noble Silence in the Library outfit - did it! remake Belle (maybe… had this one on my list several times and have never gotten to it) - did it! (finally!) Wasp (been suggested several times so I might finally do it) - did it! Cinderella (maybe) - nope! Had ...
