Normally I try not to do this when I’m building a costume or outfit. Especially if it’s mostly completely. But I’ve done it this time. I’ve changed designs for Princess Cadence. I like the idea of a formal dress but it’s looking so….lackluster… at the moment. I’ve decided to do more of a fit and … Continue reading »
So this weekend my husband deployed for his fifth trip to the sandbox. This time it’s different as it’s a new place so I’ve got an extra feeling of worry. I know he’ll be fine. I know he’ll be safe. I know he’ll come home soon (though not soon enough!!!). This is his first deployment where … Continue reading »

I gotta give it to the con staff and the rest of the Platypus … Continue reading »
I’m doing a couple of panels at ConGlomeration in Louisville, KY next weekend involving costuming – “Presentation In Costuming” and “Costuming on a Budget”. I’ve done these panels in the past and they’ve had a good response.

So while I was perusing through Etsy I came across an item being offered that got me miffed… Someone is selling a Kaylee Bag. WHAT!? I know it seems like no big deal to some, but those are my babies!
