I'm continuing to work on the two Tedros commissions simultaneously. The pants and shirts are done. The cloaks need clasps sewn on. The tunics and hooded collars are finished, but still need cords made. I've decided to keep the over-sleeves separate so customers have more combination options. Unlike on a real person, the over-sleeves will stay in place even if they are unattached, but hooks and eyes up inside at the tunic shoulder seam will help hold them in place.
I had really wanted to take photos of Tedros in the finished outfit at the Guildwood Ruins Gardens this coming weekend, but the forecast is calling for nothing but rain for the next 6 days (you'd think we lived in Britain or Vancouver!) but there is a slight chance it may just be intermittent showers on Sunday. Which means I have to hurry up and make wrist-guards and belts, and twist all the cording, and do all the final finishing on at least one of the outfits. Will I get it done in time? With all the rain there may not be any fall leaves left by next weekend. We'll see.
I just finished altering the last of three Hallowe'en costumes for my granddaughters, and I really need to address my "U" photo - not to mention the other last few, several of which need props made. Then there's some more Hallowe'en stuff needs doing. Always so much to do!
