So tonight and tomorrow I will be trying to get the sewing room done being organized and things put away, and then I can start serious work on the costumes. We got the last of the black faux snake leather that Hobby Lobby had, so I can redo Dale's belt, and then his costume will be as complete as can be. Once his outfit is done, and Mom's, I can start thinking about what I want to do. I am also working on designs for a trench coat for Dale, and a Steampunk coat/outfit for his sister Crystal. I am also teaching my cousin Jill how to sew Ren/fantasty clothing for herself. I am so glad we got the new machine, since it will see a lot of use in the next few months.
I really do need to update more often, lol. I got 16 views i none hour last night, come back today, and I have 32 views. that is very encouraging. Today was a good day all around. Me, Mom, and Dale all went up to Des Moines to go fabric shoppiing for Mom's Ren fair costume next year. We found some very pretty polyester brocade in blue and silver, and the matching pattern in white and silver, as well as a sturdy cotton to make the hoop skirt and corest out of. We also got a new Brother sewing machine as well, for a very good discount with all the sales they had going on at Hancock's Fabrics. Once i have the mock up done and fitted to Mom, I will be able to get started and have everything waiting for her for September. I'm hopping to get everything done early this year, so i have some breathing room between costumes and gettng to enjoy them.
