Eden's costume is slowly coming along. I spent much of yesterday embroidering and beading, but it doesn't go all that fast. I got one side of his hooded collar embroidered and beaded, but now I have to do it all over again on the other side.... I haven't decided whether to use beads or studs on his tunic. Studs would be bigger. Beads would be smaller. Studs would be flatter. Beads would stick out more. Studs are a lot harder to apply, whereas beads are a lot easier. But in the end, it will be whichever looks best.

His costume is looking great. I love seeing it develop more each day. The blue lining of his hooded collar really highlights his blue eyes.

Thanks. I wanted it to have a bit of colour, and since Yvette's gown is blue, I chose it to match her a bit.

The costume is beautiful already and will be stunning when it's finished. The blue lining is perfect.

Thanks. I just wish it went faster. I ended up choosing tiny silver studs, and they are a pain to insert. Literally. There's a dozen rows of them, each with 16 studs, so it will take several days to insert them all.
