Hey folks! Just an update... the mom-in-law came by for a couple of days and we got a large chunk of my costume done. Yay! The outer tunic is done except for the final hem of sleeve and bottom. The inner tunic is just a dickie at this point... I'm really out of time... but at least that much is done. After DragonCon I plan to make a dark brown undershirt with actual sleeves. This weekend I just need to finish the obi and the shoulder armor. It won't be a fantastic costume, as the Simplicity costume isn't close enough to right in many areas... But at least it's a start. It's made of the tan osnaburg (sp?) fabric, which came out much nicer than I anticpiated when I looked at it on the bolt. After a good washing it came out very soft and a lovely color! The inner "tunic" is the same for now, but I want to do a dark brown one later. I have dark brown leggings, too. My boots and belt will be wrong for now. I only have black (motorcycle!) boots and a totally inappropriate black leather belt. But that should get me through Dragoncon anyway, and I'll work on getting the right parts after. Anyway, I'll bring/wear what I have and beg for some more tips when I see ya'll at the Con! Thanks again... Lala
