Clad in Silver-white: Costumers of Middle-earth Network 1 month, 3 weeks agoJust got a brand new Brother sewing machine. (I finally resigned myself to the fact that my old one was broken.) So look for more costuming activity from me soon. :)

Clad in Silver-white: Costumers of Middle-earth Network 8 months, 2 weeks agoWell, since September is apparently National Sewing Month, I’d better do some. Time to get a start on Halloween costumes I think.

Clad in Silver-white: Costumers of Middle-earth Network 9 months, 2 weeks agoI’m going to embark upon creating a “costume” for my husband. It’s not exactly fantasy, but certainly not modern… a simple version of a medieval monk’s robe with cowl and cloak. He’s a Celtic Priest, at least in his beliefs and practices (the official Celtic Church was merged into the Catholic church before he could get one started here).…[Read more]

Clad in Silver-white: Costumers of Middle-earth Network 9 months, 2 weeks agoI finally finished it! Let’s see, material like this is 8$ a yard, times 7 yards is 56$. Lace is normally 12$ a yard; so 2 yards of lace, 24$. 2 zippers, thread, ribbon, and 2 broken needles: 15$. I worked a total of 24 hours on it, and Jason a total of 5 and 1/2. Labor is 10$ an hour. A total of 295$ in labor. Double the cost of the materials so…[Read more]

WOW! That’s beautiful! I’d love to see the full gown on a model…
And your choice of fabric is exquisite–is there something under the center lace panel, or is it just multiple layers of lace?-

Clad in Silver-white: Costumers of Middle-earth Network 10 months, 1 week agoI found it! Yay! The only evidence that I have of the day I went to the mall all dressed up for the release of Prince Caspian (I went dressed up because an old-teacher-friend was proposing to his now-wife via an awesome advert he had the cinema run during the adverts…so…much…fun! An adorable proposal if ever there was one!) Anyway, a…[Read more]

Thanks Sarah :D

:D Thank you – indeed, she has a way of choosing great fabric and patterns – I marvel at people who can make costumes so I was very excited about wearing it I recall :D
-
Haha, I feel the same way Kylie. My mom is a bit of seamstress (she can’t construct clothes, but she can make a lot of other things!) but i can barely sew two pieces of cloth together.
You look like you’re having a lot of fun in that dress :). I dislike wearing dresses but for some reason wearing my “costumes” are among the times when I feel…[Read more]
