Update

It's been a few days since I have written. Sorry! Do to complications I didn't get to take pictures of the costumes I have been working on. I am trying to arrange a time where I can get these pictures taken.... grrrr. I have another event next weekend. I may have to wait til then.
But, for next event I am making more costumes! YAY! One for myself and one for my boyfriend. My friend approached me with the idea that he wanted me to play his INC (in character) sister. I gladly accepted! After browsing a few of my favorite online shops I found some piece I really loved.
I feel like I am personally supporting Damsel in this Dress. I have bought a bodice everyweek it seems! The chainmail headdress was only like $20. and I got black beads added to it. I have to made a blouse to go under the bodice and a skirt to go with it.
As for my boyfriend, I am making him a black pinstipe longcoat. Originally he had wanted a black and white alternating panelled long coat... but our Joann's didn't have the fabric. I can't blame them. They were having an amazing sell. He is very excited about it still and he volunteers to help me cut out the fabric!
I have tonight and tomorrow of work so I plan to get these done ASAP. I hope that my bodice comes today.... but knowing my luck I may have to wait til Monday cause Turkey Day interrupted the mail! The headdress should get here either Tuesday or Wednesday. I must learn patience it seems...
