Count down to Estrella: Garb done

[ickaimp]

We are done sewing garb for Estrella War!!! Everyone has at least two sets of clothing. Just in time, since War starts on Monday for three two of the group.

Obachan brought a book on Mongolian costuming and I discovered that my mis-match of patterns is more period than I previous thought. We're talking about doing sewing weekends, once a month from now on. And now we have photos of period garb and patterns to go off of, which have thus far been hard to find. OMG fabric. *droooools* Clashing colours doesn't even begin to cover it. XD Although the brocade tends to be a pain to sew.

On the plus side, I made about two dozen chinese knot buttons today. I think I can make them with relative ease from now on. @_@

*yawns* Heading to War prolly on Wed. In the meantime, I'm gonna go crash. \o/ No more weekends on hands and knees for a while! no matter what Linda says about working to one's strengths.

Ficcage over on impfics.

Who else is going up Monday other than John and Sean? Oh, Lann too, right?

Hey, after the gropefest last night, you have some truth to it...

Thought that you were heading up on Monday for some reason. Sorry. #^^#

No photos yet, photos later.
... although I do have pics of my nifty new boots. They're green canvas. >D

My butt's still kinda sore.
But that might have had to do with the strange ways I was sleeping last night. ^^;; Those camping pads aren't as soft as they look.

They actually didn't look soft to me at all. ^^;; I actually slept a lot longer than I expected to sleep myself.

I wish! Then I wouldn't have to work!

I'm doing that tonight. *yawns* Todays' a day for working on websites, methinks.
