just to let everyone know....

i got some patterns for star wars costumes today including robe, obi wan and anakin items the lady who altered my sidious robe told me that if i got the patterns she could make them up
the patterns cover S, M, L and XL she also told me that she could make them even bigger if need be, she has her business just over the road from me so no need for expensive postage as its local

 

really

I'm on the look out for a jedi robe - pah, sith

Where about in Hartlepool is she based ? I'm off work on Monday so might pop through if I have 5mins

 

hi spike
she actually runs it out of her front room i'll get a price for you on monday, what size do you take and i'll let you know on monday

 

i have spoken to the lady and iam getting a price for the following a robe, tunic (with or without pants) and a whole package (robe, tunic and pants)
hope to have them tommorow (wednesday) and as soon as i get them i'll post them

 

If the robes are reasonably priced I may be interested, though If you ahve a pattern that would be usefull for me as I know someone who could make it.

 

Hey Nige,

sorry I didn't get back in touch - the GF has taken over the laptop to catch up on some paperwork so my net time has been greatly reduced this week

but that means more time on the Xbox 360

...anyway...

what I'm looking for is some heavy duty material for a Jedi Robe, I have the tunic/pants etc so any advice/costs would be welcome

by the way, fantastic Sidious outfit I look forward to doing battle with you on Saturday

 

Strong enough to fight this Lord Sidious...you are not

That wouldn't be a Simplicity 4450 pattern would it?

 

cheers for that

I need to find the right material first though, I've not been happy with anything I've seen so far

 

You get that link I sent you about a jedi Robe for sale in Durham ?

 

nope

 

that was meant forme Nige

er, yeh I saw it Dave - and I'm thinking about it but still quite like the idea of finding the material I want first

 

Sorry nigel m8
Just because you dress as the Emperor dont take over hey ! I should have wrote spikey name down first !

well spikey its a start and Durham aint that far away for postage !
