News:

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

Thanks!

New work I've done on my Byzantine. The light blue is a handkerchief, the white is a palla/contabulatim. I didn't sew the gold in there, it came like that. It also has trim on the ends but other than that it's a 4yd long rectangle of fabric. Nothing special. I Gorilla glued the freshwater pearls to the cross, which I found at Joann's (they have them at Michael's too, same brand. Global Nomad, I believe).

More to come before the weekend! Makeup testing today.

Freaken Sweet!
You really know how to costume Suu. I also can't wait to see it all together. You made that head roll too right? Neat. I wish I had more time to sew.

Now that's a lovely costume! And it's the week-end already!  :argh!:
What will the make-up be like? I really liked the kohl eyes a couple of pages back.

So between Friday night and Saturday morning, or uh...EARLY Saturday morning and mid Saturday morning, I tightened all of the pearls I already had, fixed missing ones, added more on the points of the segmentae and another row around the collar.  :kingmeh:

It's now such fancy garb with my contabulatim that I don't really want to wear it to just any event anymore. I'm going to have to make a much simpler stola or dalmatica now for low-key comfy events.
