Pink and Gold princess gown

Hello everyone,
Today I thought I'd post the first princess dress I've made. Pink and gold were my color scheme, and I made it to be just a dress-up gown for my little sister.

I love the style of this particular pattern, I have used it five times now all in different color schemes (Pink and gold, Purpleish-pink and white, Light blue and dark blue, and light purple and dark purple).

It zippers in the back for an easy change.

With the sleeves being short, it's also a great one to wear to the Renaissance Faire.

Farewell for now,

Movie Costume Monday~Merry

Good day friends,
Today I was feeling inspired by a book I recently got about the making of Lord of the Rings, Obviously I read the costume-making section first, and decided to post about Merry's Rohirric battle attire for today's Movie Costume Monday:

I just love everything about this costume, all the leather and embroidery especially. :)

Hobbits are great all-around, such stout-hearted little folks. :)

Happy Monday everyone!

Grecian Princess Gown

Hello everyone,
I originally made this costume for my movie, as a coronation gown for my character, but as it is historically inspired I will title it as such. :)

I used white silk essence from Joanns for the gown.

I think it looks also like something Galadriel would have in her wardrobe. :)

It is princess-seamed and laces in the back with a thin white ribbon.

A picture of the sleeves: (Or wings, whatever you wish to call them)

Farewell for now my friends!

Movie Costume Monday~Edmund

Good morning everyone,
I hope ya'll are having a fantastic Monday so far!
Today's Movie Costume Monday comes from the latest narnia movie: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.
I decided on Edmund's Narnian costume, I just love that classic Narnian style mixed with a little pirate-ish-ness. :P

 In the above picture it looks slightly Shakespearean with the jerkin and everything. Don't you think?

Personally, I would love to make any of their costumes, including the cool leather belts/sash things. :)

Happy Monday!



PS: I apologize about neglecting to post about costumes. I have a few planned but just haven't gotten around to taking pictures yet. :P I will though, maybe today or tomorrow...hopefully. :D

Farewell <3

Movie Costume Monday~Sim

Happy Monday everyone!

Today's Movie Costume Monday is from the new Sherlock Holmes movie: A Game of Shadows. I decided to go with one of Sim's (The gypsy) costumes.

I love her style, knives, and what girl wouldn't want a hat like that? :)

Farewell for now,

Movie Costume Monday~Tamina

Hello everyone!

Yes, yes I know it's late, and I apologize. :P

For yesterday's MCM I decided on the first gown that Tamina wears in Prince of Persia.


I also love the way they did her hair:

I have been considering making this one for a while now...what do you think?

Sometime this week I will be posting about a couple of pioneer girls, but until then, may your needles stay sharp!

Farewell,
