Arrr! I'm working on a new pirate coat. Promised myself one for the next annual Pirate Feast in February, then realized that if I finished it in October I...
I think this month's home page photo is Faramir's formal garb he wore at Arg's coronation; I think you can tell it's his because he has a green leather...
... Yep, it's F's coronation duds. The sleeves are interesting: what looks at first glance to be more of the same pin-tucked fabric that keeps showing up all...
I'm gathering info. on Eowyn's riding outfit. Although, I'm pretty sure the embroidery was done by machine, I was wondering if that star- shaped flowers and...
though I wanted to do an LOTR dress, I'm too poor right now to make one properly! instead I am going as River Tam from the movie serenity (and the show ...
My 5 year old is going as a hula girl, my 6 month old will be a lady bug, and I will wear my Arwen bridge dress. We are in Texas. [Non-text portions of this...

I'm doing a witch costume for my 8-year-old and a princess for my 6-year-old. After five straight years of licensed characters, I made them pick something...

My friends are doing a variety. My boyfriend and I are doing a Firefly/Serenity inspired look - him in leather pants, long sleeve brown shirt and a leather...
I tried an invisible zipper, but it made the dress difficult to put on. I used snaps on a reinforced piece behind the opening. People have also discussed using...
... But the frontal closing is one zip or not zip? The original has an invisible zipper.... but the zip tab has been removed. If you do that, you need to use...
... patch is to be professionally embroidered, and to cut down on later work, I'd like to know the specifications of getting an image ready to be sent to an...
... mind that the corset was attached to the vest, but now I'm quite sure it's not. Is it... a full vest with a corset worn over it? I've always been vague on...
I used a zipper in the back. (Though I had to have help zipping up and was constantly zipping my hair into the costume. Owie!) The front center seam I just...
... NO matter what you do, you probably want to at least put a bone/stay along each lacing edge to keep it from wrinkling up, and I'd also put one in each side...
Hi there, I made this dress two years ago for a costume party - as I only had three weeks to do it in I went for getting the look of the outfit rather than...
Yeah, I'm doing a rolled hem by hand for the Mourning gown veil-- doesn't look too bad but the veil is HUGE, and this will probably take forever. :( ... I ......
I did a write-up on my Chase Outfit here: http://www.lazra.lunarpages.com/chasedress.html I used to have more in-progress pics, but they've been lost/deleted....

I'm a novice sewer and I'm very excited because I'm getting ready to attempt Arwen's Chase Dress. My question is, what have people used for the sash loops in...
