Description Long story short, the night before I wanted to wear this my sewing machine blew up (almost quite literally) and currently now my sewing machine will not sew a single stitch. It's going straight to the shop Monday >< It's a piece of crap anyways...I really need new one! T_T but anyways, I was in the middle of finishing up my Lacus shirt when this was happening and the shirt was almost ENTIRELY ruined by all the stupid crap going on with the machine. I was able to salvage it for the most part and since I couldn't use my machine, it was finished via VERY ghetto methods ><

The shirt will hopefully be entirely remade for Otakon along with her cute sleeves! But I was happy to get to wear Lacus for Soycon on June 20th! I have no idea how on 2.5 hrs of sleep I was able to walk around Chicago for the day in 85 degree weather...but I did O_O Sadly Wasabi-chan (green haro) is turned around so you can't see his cute lil face *pout*

**Yes I made this entire costume so don't ask me where I bought it LOL

>:3 you look so cute! even though i have absolutely no idea what its from..

stupid breaking sewing machine! did you name it yet? if not you realy should now! (mines called yettie, and my serger is YE-TA, both love to brake needles and hate crappy fabric)

anyways! very cute xD

TotallyToastyAri In reply to ChelseaHavoc [2009-06-22 22:55:52 +0000 UTC]

hahhaa yettie is awesome! XD you'd think after 2.5 years of having the machine I'd have a name for it, but to be honest I can't think of a name that fits it XD it's rather sad! My dress form and wig heads are all named after famous opera/play women who have Madam at the front of their names XD (dress form = Mme Butterfly LOL) and my laptop/camera crap/harddrive/printer are all named after disney characters haha. but the sewing machine continues to be nameless poor thing...

oh! and Lacus is from Gundam SEED! lol I think I might have forgotten to put that in there ><
