holytoastrGetting close to the finish line for this costume.
I finished the tail last night. I think it looks pretty good. I actually did not mess up the zipper, which is kinda amazing to me. I have such issues with nice invisible zippers.
All that is left is the ruffle trim on the top. I went out shopping last night, but the craft store did not have the thread I wanted for the trim. It wasn't a complete waste of time though, because ben needed to buy something there and we also picked up dinner.
I found some other thread I had sitting around that isn't perfect, but gets the job done. I made the ruffles and pinned them in place last night. (Dress form to save the day!) All I have left is to sew them on. In theory, that will be easy.
Then I want to go to bed early so I can wake up early. It takes me about thirty minutes every morning to drain my nose and throat (still not over this stupid cold!), so I need to leave myself plenty of time to do that before my hair (my wig is so preeeeeeetty!) and make up (note to self: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVoNdJbnRKo).
