Another last night blog post

Haven't updated in a while. Been busy because of Animal Crossing. It's seriously additive. I've been lacking on writing and on sewing. But only because I got bit by a spider and am having signs of a allergic reaction. My joints of my left hand hurt badly and the bite is swollen so if it gets bigger I'll have to go to the doctor.  Hopefully that doesn't happen as tomorrow I want to dye the lace and start sewing! We're helping someone move tomorrow but afterwards I hope we have time so I can sew before going to the gym.

It's been so busy lately. I've been bumping up my search for a job and playing way too many video games. We're shopping for Oz's fabric this Friday so I want to get Alice's dress done this weekend. Even if I have to wake up early and stay up late working on it.

I need to...

~Dye the lace for the sleeves (Using lace to cover up a hole in one of the sleeves.)
~Put in elastic on the sleeves
~Hem the bottom of the dress
~Start sewing on ruffles

Done!

Not much to do. Hemming will take a long time though and I'm not looking forward to it. I am, however very excited to start on Oz. The details on his coat are wonderful. I can't wait. I'll update more often and post pictures of the prop progress soon.

The scythe is looking great. We were going to use foam but it didn't end up well. Non of the pieces we cut out fit together (It looked bad, didn't stick and so on.) so we switched to more cardboard. We have the second piece on and it looks great. It is heavy but I was expecting that. The wooden rod is amazing. It's coming to life and looking cool as heck. We have one more layer to put on then have to figure out how to get it to stay on the pole. I'm thinking of creating a base out of cardboard and foam but we'll see.


Stay tuned for more!

Thanks for viewing!
