Abq Yet another Costuming Workshop - Sun, Aug 10th

My son want to be a Jedi for Halloween (of course he will probably change his mind..3 yr olds are apt to do that) but I've seen some patterns for karate uniforms that could work...if I find one you are more than welcome to use it. For material, I was going to go for the monk cloth (which I did see recently at walmart) and the pants, something lightweight like cotton or a polyblend of some sort. (I don't think I'll be able to keep a helmet on his head for more than 20 seconds, though)

I'll keep you posted though...

 

Material hunt sounds cool. This weekend is bad for me, but maybe Labor day weekend sometime?

 

I'm all about a fabric hunt... I used Monks cloth for my Obi and my outer tunic, and Duck Canvas for my pants inner tunic and tabard, ( although I had bought some raw silk to replace my inner tunic)

okay labor day weekend sound good to me for a material/fabric hunt choose your word...

saturday or sunday? I am always in town sundays but it is no matter to me....

 

Saturday works best for me. I have family coming in Sunday.

 

okay sounds good to me... would meeting at say around 5 work okay? I can't guarnetee I can get the day off if I do we can up the time. But that will give me a 15 min buffer that day.

and if the costume works well for your son I may try and make a pajama pj thing for my bros kid-sis in law will love that!

 

That might work for me. Have to see what the wifey wants to do that day...

Plus, for everyone, I work at Woodworker's Supply and get a mean discount (most of the time) so if there are any tools, supplies, etc, that anyone may need for costuming (or anything else), I can hook you up. Just let me know. If you want a quick perusal of our wares, check out woodworker.com.

 

okay well let us know whats up... and thanks for the link I will be definatly visiting there often... now I just need the money to fall into my lap so I can afford to buy it.
