25th September 2012: Just Bought My Socks! Just bought the socks for this costume off eBay, here's hoping they look like the picture when thry arrive, eh?

24th September 2012: Fabric Choice! I'm really pleased with my fabric choice for the skirt! It's a red and green tartan, not perfect to the reference but I do really like it. See the picture! I've just ironed my side seam and my waistband, now to actually construct the skirt... Eeek scary thought ahaha

23rd September 2012: Whoa, I'd better update! Since my lovely Stocking updated her costume, I figured I'd better swing by and say I'm not dead and this costume is in progress!

There's still a fair bit to do, but it's mostly little things so I'm not worried about time (yet!). I have my shirt already, but since I've lost a bit of weight I need to add some darts to help it fit. I received a green tie as a birthday gift, and I'm borrowing the wig, too. So the top half is good to go!

I'm making the skirt (but have found really good fabric, yay) and have the socks watched on eBay. I already have shoes so that's one less thing to worry about. I'm hoping to have this done by the end of next week but I'm a bit scared of making a pleated skirt so that's why I'm putting it off lol XD
