I'm on ur f-list makin a post
So I think a break is necessary from the Olympic Drama Llama.
Today I'm watching the games and working on my My Little Pony costume. I'm getting closer and closer to being done - the kicker will be if I decide to make the vines with ribbons or if I draw them on using fabric markers. Anyway, the big project for today is cutting out strawberries and leaves from felt, which I will in turn hand sew on to the jacket.
Twenty-one strawberries have been cut out, nine remain. Thirty two leaves remain. My hand is cramping, so I'm taking a quick break to make a nonsense post about me cutting out felt. Exciting, I know.
Anyway, I'll probably finish the strawberries and then do as many of the leaves as my poor, abused hand can take for tonight. Also, somewhere in all of this costuming, I have to drag everything out from under the bathroom sink and reorganize, as my husband bought me a shitload of stuff at Bath & Body Works that can't live in the bags on the dining room table.Husband also bought me a Better Homes and Gardens Cook Book (pink edition) yesterday, too, but that was much easier to put away than the stuff from Bath & Body Works.
So I need to order some gloves (or go to the local party supply store and see if they have any) that I can modify because I need something to put over my arms. Also need white shoes. Well...I have white shoes, but there's black on them too. Ideally, a pair of white clogs would work, but I'll settle for something different if I can find something else I like.
Mmmm, back to cutting out strawberries.
Because it's just not the Olympics unless there is wank of some kind.

Anyway, our cosplay group is making a bunch of costumes based on 1980's pop culture/cartoon icons. Care Bears, My Little Pony, Jem, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles....you see where I'm going with this. :3 Anyway, I'm having fun with this, and I'll have to post a picture of me and my pony so you can understand exactly WHY I cut out 30 felt strawberries. And then will sew them all to a jacket by hand.
