next weekend is my grandads birthday bash/family reunion. Next week might be a possibility. Let me see if I survive the weekend first.

I can pick up some red velour for those that need it... if Joanne's has it in stock right now.

Red shirt fabric has been washed and re-rolled onto the bolt. I couldn't figure out how to fold that much fabric. grin

Can we get a list of sizes needed for 'real' red shirts? We have a pattern right now that goes up to men's large, but with our Seamstress of DOOM, aka "JGoC" we should be able to make larger.

right now I am making one in Medium for myself, and one in either Medium or small for the mistress...

We didn't modify that one pattern... did that still need to be done?

I hope to reclaim my social life this summer, so I am available for this. I know we still have almost a year to work on our Joe costumes, but maybe we could resurrect one of our other projects as well. devil


Also, I signed up to use the fitness center on campus this summer to get in better shape and quit smoking (AGAIN.) so maybe costuming night could involve fitness training as well. *shrug*

I think as long as we 'discuss' costuming, that counts as a costuming night wink

We have been getting stuff out of storage for the yard sale this weekend, and guess what I found? Tiny's arse...and legs, of course. I put it on the porch and so far several neighbors and the mailman have asked me what the heck it is. I lied. mischief

I told a few people that it was a mockup for a fatsuit. I told a few others it was a stunt tool to practice being hit by a car.

The truth might have been more interesting.

I remember wearing it and trying to fall down your stairs. *sigh*

Tiny is now resting on top of my armoire, legs dangling over my tv. If anyone ever went in my room (which never happens) Tiny might appear to perch above them, waiting for his/her opportunity to leap...strike...kill.
