=== 27 January 2004 === I finished a chemise, a bodice, two skirts and an apron for me for the party on the 24th. For Robert I finished a cloak, a black surcoat and nearly-finished a red tunic - it had to be done up with safety pins. The decoration and trimmings did not get done, sadly, nor the Horn of Gondor, but we both looked good and I won the Best Costume prize. I think my wig had a lot to do with that, though. Today I am home ill. I might manage some knitting later. ---------------- |

I shall make this a not-blog with notes about what I did when.
19 January 2004
I went to Hobbycraft yesterday. I spent a lot of money.
I have made some cards with special paper and gold skeleton leaves - I'm going to use them to write my thankyou letters in.
I have also starfted netting another glass vase. I did a medium-sized one in two shades of blue for my mother for Christmas. Now I have a tiny cheap one I'm doing in black and pink, and it's going quite well. The design is more complex this time.
I haven't got much further on the Horn of Gondor, but I have made the chemise for my hobbit costume. I only have a week to make all of Rosie Cotton's and Boromir's costumes.
I have also bought new 4mm knitting needles and various gorgeous smoky-purple wools to make a scarf with. I am going to need assistance on this because I have not managed any proper knitting ever, really. It is going to be a big stripy scarf, though.
13 January 2004
I have begun making the Horn of Gondor out of cardboard and duct tape. It is jolly diffcult, but I will triumph. I have yet to get fabric for the clothes and I am worried about how long it will take - I've been ill, so I am behind.
I am also due to make more Shards costumes, but the next event we're attending isn't till April, so I have ages for that!
26 December 2003
I'm at home for Christmas so not doing any crafts - unless baking counts. I'm making gingerbread later today. I made pinwheel cookies last week but everyone else ate them before I got a chance to. I am going to a ROTK party on January 24th and have to make a Boromir costume and a Rosie Cotton hobbit costume for it. Argh. Not sure what to do about the feet. .
Was given fabric and blank craft cards for Christmas. Super family knows what I like :-)
