One piece down, three to go...

Finished the top for my Fuu costume last night. With luck (knock on wood) the rest of the costume will go easier. There's a pair of pants with minimal trim, a lined dress with trim around the hem, and a belt with a bow in the back. And, if I wanted to get technical, a pair of Arabian-esque pointed toe shoes. But those will depend on other projects because I can substitute black ballet slippers if time requires. Because I have to put Shinku back together and make at least two kimono (Wonderful Husband will be helping with that, we went and bought our fabric last night) as well in the next month. So, speed cosplay, which is not my norm.

Finished rereading the Earthsea trilogy and am feeling the need to purchase the other books in the universe. Also finished reading through my new Threads magazine and am feeling like making some summer wear. But projects first!

And Princess Princess. ^_^

Trilogy? So you've read A Wizard of Earthsea, the Tombs of Atuan and the Farthest Shore? Do you know of the fourth one, Tehanu? We have the four together in a collected volume. More recently, there's one out called The Other Shore, which follows Tehanu, and is good too ^^

I like it when good writers write lots (poke!) :)

I've read Tehanu, I just don't /own/ it yet. The others I've had for ~15 years. There's also a "Tales of Earthsea" anthology....

Ah, sorry - missed the 're' in front of 'rereading' ^^;;

And that should be 'The Other Wind', not 'The Other Shore'! d'oh. Brain dead day..
