sigh. the first joann I went to didn't have what I need and I can't wait any longer to start this costume, so ... gonna have to continue my quest

Are you doing C2E2?

it's like ... I need something both sturdy and shiny, so I think I'm just going to have to admit that I need more pleather or vinyl. the saddest thing is I had some in just the right color, but it was crap quality and deteriorated after the, oh... 15 years I've been hanging onto it.

bees-n-murders I am! I'm hoping to have mcu carol done for that, but only if I can find what I need - otherwise I'll do comics version

fortunately the bracers and boot tops I already have were made with that in mind

Awesome! Hopefully I'll see you there

That would be awesome! I'll be there Saturday and Sunday so I'm sure we could set up a time if we dont randomly run into each other. I know antipositional is gonna be there Saturday too

Excellent I'm volunteering with the CBLDF, so I'll be easy to find if I'm on shift, otherwise I'll def hit you and Ali up on plurk!

oh neat! such a good cause

ahhhhhh I found the perfect fabric and of course it's $30/yd but it's so good .... and I'm going to get so much out of this costume that I might as well just go for it. hhhhhh

I could proooobably stand for it to be darker, but that's a fine nit to pick

god she looks so good. like, that's just. I am so damn excited and I'm not gonna be able to shut up about this, it's like, 2.5 weeks. WEEKS
