Last night I sat down and made lists. I think I can be certified as the list princess, since J-9 is the undisputed list queen. I'm at the very least a list duchess.
Yes.

Anyway, here's what the next 3-4 weeks of costumed events look like for us (*sigh* costuming for one is so much easier than costuming for three):

• Oct. 17th or 24th (leaning ( Read more... )

Ok, so I'm being a post whore today, so sue me ( Read more... )

( Home is behind, the world ahead, and there are many paths to tread. . . )

Shooting to get the membership squared away before Nov. 14th when it goes up. Other than that, it's official, I'll be there.

I didn't have time to do this before I left and since I'm still not able to get my ALEP pics off the camera, I might as well do it now. Some of these are really grainy because I've had to fiddle with contrast and such. The lighting in my sewing room is not only poor for working but even worse for taking pictures, especially at night ( Read more... )

Before I forget. . .

I'm back from A Long Expected Party. I'm still kind of processing the events and thoughts of the weekend. I will say this, it was a strange experience going into a busy grocery store after having been in that environment all weekend. The weekend was amazing.

P.S. - The nethers answer to Sauron alone. They have no other master.

All the sewing I needed to get done is done except handsewing the trim to the Blood Red gown. I'm taking that with me to work on as I plan to sit up with sailingwest this evening on ghost watch. It took me about an hour to do one sleeve last night, so I'm sure I'll have it done in time to wear to the Hall of Fire on Friday night. The Blood Red overgown and ( Read more... )

So, I just tried on the Blood Red gown undergown and as it turns out, I'm going to have to let it out in the bust area if I want to zip it up and not risk ripping it. Some of the seams are already looking stressed from me trying to zip it up as is. I'm a sad panda that I've got to let it out. Examining the seams to see where I can get some extra ( Read more... )

I haven't gotten a moment to get any sewing done today and tonight we've got the celebration of three birthdays (Bilbo, Frodo and Paul, a member of our Smial). I knew a few days ago there was no way I'd finish the embroidery. The long hours and late nights I've spent on this thus far is starting to wear on the chemistry of our household. I don't ( Read more... )
