That box looks really cool. You must have patience because I know I would get very frusterated trying to do that.

Thanks DCGG Smile

It did take some patience, but it was fun so that was what mattered. I love doing crafty painting stuff like that bounce

Was finally able to get my RenFest costumes up on my computer! I made these a month ago in a span of two weeks. These are my 4th and 5th completed costumes so far. Like always, my boyfriends came out wayyy better than mine. If I had time i would have completely re-done the skirt, because the two silvers don't even remotely match up. *le sigh* Hopefully next year's will be better.

^^ Wow! Your costume is beautiful -- really makes me wish I could sew. The two silvers look intentionally different; I would not have known that wasn't the intended design.

Very very nice! As someone who has done my fair share of ren/medieval costuming, I have to say you have done an excellent job.

Thank you, Red & Ginger! You're complements really mean a lot Smile

And Ginger, I know the posts were older now, but I love all you're tops you've posted! Can't wait until you post another finished project Smile

Science Wins Bitches!

I chose the DNA strand because it is DNA evidence that proves common descent.

That's awesome! Is that all machine embroidered?

Well done, Ginger! Great design!

The lettering is machine embroidered but not by me. I bought the lettering pre-packaged at Wal-Mart.

Decided to try to make my own shrug tonight. The fabric got a bit wonky towards the end (pvc is hard to sew! tantrum

) Oh well, it kinda looks like what I wanted..kinda.

WIR: Ah cool! Smile

I was looking forward to seeing them -- glad you posted pics!

QueenB: That's a really innovative design! Smile

Turned out well.

QueenB: That is really cool! It is effective to wear? I mean aside from the sexiness of it, of course Wink

Subject: Re: Post Finished DIY Projects! Thu Jan 12, 2012 1:45 pm

SPF- Thank you. I wish I knew how to make one with yarn..or anything out of yarn :p

Red- I wish I could take credit for the design, but I've seen it a few times before in shops. But why buy something when you could just as easily make it?

WIR- It's great to hide a little bit of you're upper arm when wearing certain tops or dresses (I'm always self conscious about my arms) without wearing a cardigan or jacket. And thank you!
