Contests... and Costumes... and Without a Computer for a Week!!!



Well, I haven't been here for a few days because my mom took the computer away from me for ABOUT a weeks time. I'm back though.

Tomorrow, being Tuesday, is my last marching contest. :: cries :: I feel old (although I'm only 17) because I'm a senior and this is my LAST marching contest. Wish us luck, please, we can use all the luck we need, considering that my band will be marching on astroterf (sp?) which will make marching all more harder for us, because it will be easy to tell if we messed up, and judging all the much easier. Grr...

Ah, costumes. In two days time, I have made a kimono and a hakama, in black material. They are both coming out well, I am glad to say. I still need to hem some raw edges, and after that, I can then fix the kimono sleeves so that there will be a pouch and a hole for my arm. Then, using white material that I need to get, I can make some lining for the kimono so I can 1. have some lining, and 2. have some white showing around the collar and the sleeve hole. Yeah.

As for the hakama, pleated pants that tie around your waist, all I need to do with that is sew the raw edges, sew on the sash (which is about 2 inches wide and 6'4" long), add a few minor details, and I'll be finished.

I still need to get some tabi and some straw matted flip flops.

Here's a question for all those that have read this, what exactly, using this costume, should I go as? It's all black.
