costumes are hard work

Note to self: do a million sit-ups before Dragon*Con, and quit eating junk food.

I finally dug my sewing out again last night, so I’ll be working like crazy the next month to get my costume done in time for the con. I completed the top sometime last year, but I’m either going to make some modifications to it or completely redo it. It also still needs the collar, and I haven’t even started on the skirt. I lucked out and found the prefect set of gloves on Ebay a few weeks ago. (I was really afraid I’d have to make those). The major work will probably be the wig modification. I ordered some extensions from Doctored Locks and will be using this tutorial for making pigtails. That should be interesting.

This weekend I’ll be shopping for more supplies. I’ll post updates as it progresses.
