Hi girls, just a short note, I'm here around but i'm so busy! I'm sewing 3 (three!!) cosplay costumes for an anime toon convenction, and it' next week, so I'm working every evening after the office until midnight to make them in time. I miss my patches... :(( Moreover my NNTP server is down since last week and it's quite hassling connecting from google groups website, I hope the server will turn on quickly. Hugs!

Woot! I'm in the middle (literally!) of sewing a Halloween/cosplay costume for my son. It was supposed to be an anime character, but he decided on Rincewind from the Terry Pratchett books instead. I'm surrounded by seas of red fabric, sequins and corks. What toons are you doing? Both my sons are very into anime. The older is a walking encyclopedia of the stuff. I made a Hellsing costume for my older son four years ago.

Hellsing costume? Cool! I like the red jacket but I think it will be too hard for me to sew it.. :( Don't know about Pratchett books, I've never read them, even if I always thought I'd give them a try a day or another.. I'm making Rakka (for me), the Washi and a Touga from Haibane Haibane Renmei. I'm quite over with Rakka dress and accessories, but I'm having hard time with the Washi cloak, it is very difficult to made from scratches and has a very strange form. Rakka wings instead turned out very well, I ordered gray marabou feathers from Ebay and hot glued on fake white fabric wings: they have a great natural effect. Hope I can finish by halloween, the anime convenction starts on nov
1st, and we have to travel to Lucca also... ApestSunny ha scritto:
Ok, you must, must, must post photos. I very much want to see these costumes in detail. Sounds really ambitious. I'm not a seamstress. I really don't enjoy sewing clothing and I'm not good at it, but when your teenager asks you to do something...................well, how can I say no? Sunny
