I decided to make myself a list so it can help me choose what to make when I get the chance to. You guys can help me pick as well!!

{Cosplay}

1.) Princess Jasmine: red outfit
2.) Jun: uniform - only w/o helmet, unless I can figure out a way to make a really good one.
3.) Catwoman: black w/ goggles, in purple, or old show
4.) Fuu Hououji: w/o armor or with it
5.) Bioshock: Tenenbaum or Langford
6.) Princess Daisy: new dress
7.) Princess Leia Organa: Hoth uniform (but only if the place I am going to be at is cold), white celebration dress, or Bespin dress
8.) Rise (Persona 4): School Uniform
9.) Diana Prince: Original Version - I might even wear a Wonder Woman costume under the clothes or secret agent
10.) Vampire Princess Miyu: white dress
11.) Team Fortress 2: The Scout
12.) Velvet: from Odin Sphere


{Other Costumes}

1.) Rome-inspired: The white or blue dress
2.) Gypsy: Pattern that I will use I am thinking about doing something inspired by the song "Gypsy".
3.) Kilt: Ren Fest costume for my bf


{Plushies}

1.) Shadow Heartless: normal - this is for my disney princess costume. The plush will be attempted amigurumi style.

That is just a few of them for now - I will be working on the list!

I am so tired today - I don't know why, but I am going straight to bed tonight for sure! LOL! Marissa and I went to AMC today (because we had 2 free passes) and saw Studmuffin Speed Racer today. It was fun, I really enjoyed it. Plus, I went someplace I hardly ever go to! (Also, I really want to cosplay Trixie now because Marissa kept saying that she reminded her of me. :p)

I also got to use my new GPS to help me get there - which I ordered right away because of the whole getting lost in Pasadena fiasco that happened recently. I love it to death!

I only have to work 8:00 - 12:00 on Fridays but today was a looooong day - because I didn't have any work what so ever to do! I was joking to Brian on Thursday about it: "Brian, why do I have to be so diligent and actually do my job!?" ^^

Last night I got to go out and eat dinner and go to Borders with my chiquitita! Which reminds me - I wore the shirt/dress you gave me to the movie today! Thank you! <3

Okay - so Marissa and I are wanting to go to Video Games Live - and because it's at Jones Hall and an Orchestra despite the casuality of it - we wanted to dress up a bit. I joked about dressing up as Princess Daisy or Princess Peach because they wear gowns.

So I thought about it and figured that it might be a good summer project. I choose Princess Daisy because she is my Mario Karty character (I always play as her). The thing is - I have not sewn anything other than regular clothes for myself or anyone else. I have been told that it's pretty easy as long as I can alter a pattern.

I have been looking at Cosplay sites and basic walkthroughs to try to get an idea of what needs to be done. So I am hoping that someone might have some tips and tricks to help me out with this.

( here is what I have so farCollapse )

Okay - so if anyone could give me some tips and suggestions on how to go about this - I would be very greatful. Anything - whether it be how you would go about it, to suggest a fabric I should use, or suggest some patterns I should look at - whatever. I will be grateful for any help. :D
