Costumes.

[gonemoondancing.livejournal.com]

I have to put this out there a a way of motivating myself to get it done. If you people know about it, then maybe it'll keep me from shaming myself into giving up on it.

I'm a HUUUUGE Labyrinth fan, and this Halloween my husband and I to go as Jareth and a goblin. I am 100% making both costumes, and after looking at the few forums talking about Jareth cosplay, I have come to find that NO ONE ever talks about how to make that damned upturned cape collar. I have fashoned a mechanism for this cape (thanks to wire hangers and electrical tape), and have not yet finished sewing the fabric over it. I still have a tunic and cloak to make for my goblin after that, and I have a day before Halloween dress I'm making out of a shirt that my husband didn't like, but have generally abandoned for the sake of these costumes. I'll post pictures when i'm done if you like, but please, try to encourage me into finishing this stuff before it's too late and i have to wait till next year to use the $50 of fabric spen for this.
