You know sometimes I do wish I was a little more forward but I'm not with people I don't know. Yesterday while shopping there was a girl, likely late teens/early 20s, shopping for fabric with a couple guys. she was wearing an animal character hat I couldn't recognize. And a Naruto jacket around her waist. I wasn't 100% sure about the jacket until she was leaving and I saw the symbol tucked away. Heh I probably would have scared her.
However we did pretty good with shopping yesterday. I have some white polyester microcrepe I'm going to attempt to dye a very pale aqua with food coloring for Byakuya. Finding fabric the right color and texture has been impossible so I'm going to try to make it myself. I'm going food coloring over actual fabric dye as it's bucket loads cheaper, like $15 and I don't think polyester usually takes dye all that well so I'm trying not to waste money. Yeah, I'll do a test piece first.
I also have yet another pair of boots for Luke. These are the right color, just not quite the right style but it's all good. They need some padding in them though dammit but I guess that's what I get for buying cheapass boots for cosplay purposes.
I have a plan for today that involves housework. Now that I have all my fabrics it's time to get them organized. I have a to check my con to do list and get links for sites I need to leave travel info at. Once that side of it is all organized I'll be sewing, working, sleeping, having random moments of chat and sewing.
Is it October yet? *grin*
