Sewing win

I've been slowly piecing together an outfit for Marius.  He's supposed to look regal and his colors are going to be purple and bronze, so I made him a kinda kimono out of a pattern mom had a while ago, and that turned out fine.  Then the other day I wrote about making a tester... well that was for a vest for him, not like... Waist coat vest... I'm talkin like, tails vest.  Well I did a bunch of alterations and did a tester at moms, and I was pretty pleased with how it came out so tonight I actually sat my ass down at my machine and lo, I fuckin made that damn vest.  I'm really quite happy with it, I just need to get some kind of clasp that will work because it butts as opposed to overlaps.

I used some of the stuff we got at good will, which honestly this outfit is really the first one I've actually made entirely out of good will clothes, but I'm kinda liking it.  The fabrics I chose were pretty cool, a black fabric with a leaf pattern on it that was only partially opaque.  Under it I used this really neat gold/purple/silver stuff that under the black looks kinda bronzy.  I'm totally gonna have to show it off to mom tomorrow.

Speaking of mom, She and the sisterly unit decided they couldn't wait any longer for Junkyspot to get MSC in so they went and Ebayed that stuff.  So there are 2 cans of MSC headed my way, which I'm damn glad about because Xuza, Val and Lotus need redone, Marius, Koth, and Una all still need first facups.  Lordy I have a lot on my plate.
