Baw. Working on Cassandra and things are getting difficult! The shirt should be fine. I'm just modifying the top have of a dress. But the skirt...it has pleats but is full and nice. So I'm having to combine a fullish skirt from a Halloween costume patter with a child's cheerleader patter for the piece. The pleats are too big though so I have to use that pattern to create smaller pleats and not only that but I have to draw out a new pattern incorporating smaller pleats onto the curved pattern. Too much work! I know what I'm going to be doing all day tomorrow >:

Thanks for the braid help though. I'll be getting working on that as soon as I get home to my wigs. It doesn't sound too hard which is nice for me. I'm getting sad spending all my time with cosplay and not so much with other hobbies.

Did my first silicone RTV mold up today.  **** is awesome.  Bye bye latex moldmaking -- you can go rot.  Haven't tried to cast with it just yet, as I want to let it sit for a few more days, but -- squee.

Took armour off one of my nunboots in preparation for repairs.  Repainted today, and tomorrow I'll see about sticking the heel armour back on and fixing the lower part with epoxy putty.  If that doesn't work, I'll have to do a full reconstruction.

I should really start working on Sakcon projects instead of Fanime ones, though.

weren't one of your girls going to try the mascot?

I did manage to get some work done on Albel yesterday. I worked a little bit on the belt and I got ALL the material I will need to finish it up. Now I just need to start. I plan on having the belt done by this week and starting on the gloves ;D

Failing hard lately. Ordered the wrong colored wig for White Mage, boots I ordered aren't what I thought they were and I failed on my first Cassandra skirt.

Cosworx said they'd exchange the wig for the right color but I'm not sure if they'll refund my boots. If not anyone wanna buy a size 10 pair of white vinyl knee-high go go boots?

Cassandra skirt was fail from the start. I've been altering a child's cheerleader outfit to fit my adult body. Not a good idea. I added too much on it and it looks like a short moo moo. Oh well. Found an adult cheerleader pattern for 99 cents. I have the top almost done, hopefully I can get the skirt going today!

thats too bad that you are having so many issues. At least they are taking the wig back. I would buy the boots but I have tiny feet so they wouldn't fit =/

Nikki, if you need help sewing the gloves, I can help.  It's the least I could do since you're letting me borrow the pattern once you're done. :D

Perhaps we could work on them the weekend after this one?

@ Higuma- Your kids would be adorable as the fairies from A Little Snow Fairy Sugar. I've only seen pictures of it though and haven't bothered to watch it so I don't know the other character besides those three little guys.

As for progress I'm procrastinating on my homework by cutting my Cassandra wig. I'm done straightening it and waiting for it to dry. I'm worried about screwing it up though from cutting it. Oh well, I need to practice!

Alright for some picture.

Switched up costumes and worked on my boyfriends Black Mage cloak. I've gotta make the collar, sew it down, and edge stitch the whole thing again. Oh and make the things so it will tie together. He ended up choosing a really heavy material for it because it was the perfect color so I'm hoping that it will look nice on him.

Here's to finishing it tonight! Hopefully...
