The costume contest was everything I'd hoped...so many beautiful gowns!!! It was so much fun to finally get to wear my lake gown (although I carried the train 90% of the time). Kay Dee, I drooled over your Padme 'cut scene' dress the rest of the con!! I hope you will post a tutorial. And pictures!!! My husband did get some, but he ran out of film....  It was lovely to finally meet so many of you guys. Now there's so much to be done with all this inspiration!

*waves hand in air* memememememe!
No parties for me yet. I'm just dressing up to hand out candy to the kids. I'm recycling some of my ren faire clothing. Wench stuff, but instead of the more appropriately coloured top skirt, I made one in bright orange just for that night. lol

Very interesting, Benae. I like the wig.

Yeah, I understand. I don't have any parties to go to either, but since it is my senior year of high school, why not dress up again. And I'm planning on somehow getting my picnic gown (modified to a shorter skirt and probably a different styled top) finished by then so I can wear it. Odds are against me, but hey, I can try anyway, right?
And interesting, three years of high school have been Star Wars costumes, and the first year was Arwen from Lord of the Rings. 10th grade was Padme's Green Velvet robe (before the movie came out! ), 11th was Mara Jade, and more than likely another Star Wars costume this year. hehe  lol

For our store's Halloween window display, I dressed our dress form up in my Black Padme Corset costume . Luckily she's the same size as me, except for her tiny 34" hips (mine are 36") lol.
She should be in our window by next Wednesday .

ok somewhat randomness
but its star wars and fabric!
Joanns has two prints in!! Both are flannel.. One is pink with a cartoon princess leia on it(SO CUTE!) and the other is blue with Threepio and Artoo on it. Both are amazingly adorable!! I bought 3 yards of the Leia just because i could. Im makin a skirt!! But they are like $6 a yard. Just thought i'd let you all know. Working there soo has its benefits

hey everyone! i decided to be a jedi for halloween this year (i love the series, but i really know nothing beyond what ive seen in the movies :<). i just thought, if anyone was interested, that id share i found some pretty nice 'female jedi boots' at old navy for sale -- from 40$ to 15$! they look like this and come in that brown, a lighter orange brown and black.
just thought id share; finding female boots was proving to be kind of difficult (:

Ugh, I haven't been in the mood to sew anything in almost a month now. What can I do to get back into the sewing mood?

Benae's sewing room
I especially love that you have a place to lay down when you pull an all nighter, without having to disturb anyone else.
Halloween was kinda quiet around here. Got troopers in the Tournament of Roses Parade on New Year's Day soo feverishly working on other people's costumes...Bikerscout cummerbunds and pouches....after 25 sets, kinda over it. Can't wait to get back to my own stuff, an Imperial Officer's Uniform jacket, Padme's Picnic dress and some Rebel Endor costumes all for C4. I hope to get everything done well in advance of the LA convention so I can relax this trip. I was sewing all night right up until 8:30am the day we left for Dragoncon 06 this year. It really made me tired for the con and there was no time for tweakes if something wasn't exactly right.
Happy Holidays to everyone here.

I've done that 3 times already since having the room lol  . Although the room is directly across from the master Bedroom and you can still hear the sewing machine  . I can also 'try' and keep the cats out of my fabric this way too - but Pippin has learned how to open the door now  .

Oh yeah, that's happened to me. My kitty, Squishy (well her real name is Scout) has learned how to open my mom's door to her room everytime she freaks out over some little noise outside. That's when my mom learned how useful those gates can be.
...this brings up the subject of world domination by the cats again!
