Whew! The end is in sight!

A good 10 hours of work today =

The bodice boned...


... and lined and the buttons all sewn on and the buttonholes on the bodice going beautifully in spite of my worries...


And ultimately the bodice finished!


Obviously I'm not going to be wearing it over my tshirt for the presentation >.>

I also got the train bustled up properly but don't have pictures of it yet. Maybe tomorrow. I'm excited to try it all on now.

I did take a few injuries in the line of duty, however. My fingers took one for the team...


And my elbow got stabbed by a very sharp silk pin that didn't like the fact I was using it on polyvelvet as well as the silk lining. 'Heresy!' it cried, and then martyred itself on my arm. Now I'm just getting silly.


Good night!

Last rehearsal....



Still more work to do. Like finishing the bodice and the gun especially!

So I update this thing about as often as I check it...

Congratulations to AnnaMarie on expecting #2!

I've been working hard on my costume with Costume Con coming up quickly next month. Let's hope I get everything done in time!

And a little fun distracting game :) Ready, Go!
