All rightie it's that time of the year when we compare last year's to-do list and see what I got done. At the end of 2022, here's what I said I wanted to accomplish in 2023... 1. Finish Wedding Leia -- YES! I did finish wedding Leia! 2. Rebels Leia -- YES! I have been saying I was going to do this for a few years and I can finally mark it off now. 3. ...
Ok now that Huntsville is behind us, it's time to focus on Dragoncon and the costume progress I've made in the last week. So let's get back to Rebels Leia... Got the sleeves on, and a neckline facing added. Pants time! Decided to do the same thing I did with Wanda last year and use the lower half of a bodysuit pattern so there's no crotch seam. It fit really ...
Now having (or close to having) 2 new Leia costumes in my repertoire, it's really galvanizing me get moving on the movie canon costumes I'm missing, plus some other EU outfits I want to do. But first let's go through the "probably no" list... (I don't say absolutely no anymore because I know better) 1. No Leia costumes from Kenobi I completely adore her. And I've seen some adult Leia cosplayers pull ...
I want to do my wrap-up today instead of a regular post. I may still do a mini update post later today.

New Leia Dapper Day Look - YES! 5. Endor Leia - nah 6. Jedi Training Leia - ...
omg hi I haven't posted this week. I was trying to wait til I had all the new photoshoot pics uploaded, and now that I've got them I'm like... augh I haven't done my wrap-up post for this year! So I'm doing this first instead of a regular post and I'll do a post about Christmas next. So at the end of 2020 here's what I wanted to accomplish in 2021: 1. Star ...
I realllly was wanting to put together my dragoncon line-up for instagram the other day but I felt like it might jinx it. So instead here I am writing an extra blog post for the week because I'm having an irritating day and needed a nice distraction. Even though I kinda already went over this in a post a couple of weeks ago. It's my blog I do what I ...
I always looking forward to doing my end of the year costume wrap-ups. This year is sad. I really didn't think a year could get worse than 2019 and that 2020 would be a great year. Instead we got a dumpster fire. I'm angry, sad, depressed. All I want is to get eat pizza in a restaurant. Anyway. I did actually get a decent amount of sewing done this year despite having ...
I'm writing this a little early. It's December 10 and I still have 21 days to go in the month... and I think I may get the sewing done on Raddus Bridge Leia by the end of the year. In which I'd have to count it for this year... so I'm writing this in advance and scheduling to post closer to the end of the month, and if I finish her I ...
seriously I'm not even sure why I'm making a post today, I guess habit? Because I have nothing new to post about today! This weekend was hard. I don't like going into personal life stuff online too much, so I'm struggling with how much I want to post here. Basically the weekend of Dragoncon 2 things happened; first, Chase's mother was taken to the ER with pneumonia, and second, we had ...
No it's not con crud. I've never really gotten con crud except that one time I came back from WSMI in Columbus sick in 2006. But the weather is changing and I'm still worn out from dragoncon so I feel like death warmed over. I slept a lot this weekend. Vague aches and pains in the back of my head/neck. I had wanted to swim after work today but storms ...
