That was a lot of fun! Next up for me - ConNooga 2012! See you there!

Kaylee Prairie Harpy and ROSE TYLER STUFF!!

So here's one of the costumes I'm working on for Chattacon.

See how the sleeves are sewn into the princess seams? Yeah about that...

So here are some progress pics. All I have left to do is cut out and serge the back skirt pieces, add the sleeves and hem, attach the skirt and side panels, then I'm done!

Picturrrrrrrrrres!

Front - No Flash

Front - With Flash

Back

An idea of how I'm going to attach the sleeves along the princess seam.

I also need to get another pink doily that matches the flower so I can make the corners and make it rectangular.

Rose Tyler

So I showed off the boots from Boom Town and the Diesel jacket from "Aliens of London". Here's what else I've scored as of late...

Rock & Republic -Scorpion jeans in Addict Wash

These jeans are seen throughout Rose's tenure on Doctor Who. I'm super stoked I found a pair in my size!

Adidas 35th Anniversary Superstar II - New York

These are seen in The Christmas Invasion as well as The End of Time: Part 2. These are awesome!

I've also scored the Firetrap "Harrie" jacket in black from "The Empty Child". w00t!

Next up, I'll be starting my Disney Cinderella gown soon! ^_^

Costuming Updates!

So, since Dragon*Con is 19 days away (HOLY SHIT WHAT!?), I'll post the updates on how my costumes for it are coming along.

Mustafar Padme - The buckle and broach are both done - well, sculpted anyway. I've bought the glaze and I have the enamel so that'll get sanded and painted this week. woot.

The bodice top is coming along... I've gotten the double stitching done on the seams and I've finished one of the arm holes. I'll work on lining the bodice front and the skirt and get that whipped together this week...

That means all I'd have left to do is make the collar and sleeves, embroider the left one, and make the belting for the buckle and broach.  Should be done this week. I hope.

The buckle. It is awesome.

Battle Padme - I'm almost done with the jacket. I have to sew the two gores into the back and then add the ribbon. Then that's done. I need to make the ribbed shirt but if I can't get that done in time for D*Con then I'll just wear a red knit top underneath and work on the shirt for GMX

Those are the only two I'm trying to get finished for D*Con... I have a whole lot more I'm making. I plan on making at least 2 for GMX as well as helping two other people with costumes for the same con in October. Wish me luck.

Hypericon 7 - June 17th - 19th - Costume List

---I have a rather large list for Hypericon this year...

- Lisa Garland - Silent Hill
- Kaylee Frye - Firefly (green teddy bear coveralls)
- Kaylee Frye - Firefly (fluffy layer cake dress!)
- Star Trek Skant Uniform - TOS Science Blue
- Greta - Chuck
- Kaioh Michiru - Mugen School Uniform
- Rose Tyler - Doctor Who - The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances

That's all I have so far, and frankly - That may be enough!

Here's a pic of my Lisa costume! (well, the dress and sweater) - BTW, it's IMPOSSIBLE to find a red cardigan and Goodwill or any other thrift place this time of year. So what did I do? I bought a cheap red sweater, split it up the middle, and made my own friggin cardigan! :)

Also here's an in progress picture of Michiru's uniform:
