Sewing is kind of like magic...

Hey everyone!

So...haven't attempted a longer run yet since the last post...taking my mother's advice to heart (and it's REALLY FLIPPIN' COLD HERE) but decided to work more on my costume. Like I said, I'm doing Elsa from Frozen, which is a super cute movie.  Anyways, since this might be the only 1/2 marathon I ever do (or at least, fly out of the state to do)  I am trying to make this costume AWESOME. Will it turn out that way? Maybe. But at least I'll have made it so that will be something cool to say. Plus did I mention her cape? I love her cape.
This is never a good angle...
 So this is the start of it, I need a headband because I don't trust a crown on my head, it'll probably fall off and hit someone!
More dress...need an assistant to take photos lol!
It's coming along fine, it need to add more sparkles and snowflakes etc to it but it's a little smaller than what I started out with. I think the shirt needs to be taken in...but I don't know how far because I still want to be able to pull it over my head.
Leg slit! Because if I'm running it's gotta have a slit!
You can't tell but my skirt has a pocket! Let's just say during the run I plan to make some magic of my own ;)
SNOWFLAKES!!!
I'm working on attaching my cape and then details like the snowflakes will come afterwards. I plan on beading, embroidering, basically just doing way to much to it...but the race is a year away so I have to keep myself occupied :)

Nothing more interesting than that...but thought you all would maybe like to see something besides my sweaty face all of the time ;)

Until next time, keep running strong!
