Finished, This Jedi Robe Is

I really like Simplicity's new Star Wars pattern. I decided to make it out of Silk Noil (sometimes known as raw silk). There were times the silk was frustrating to work with, but this really only came up when I was trying to sew it to interfacing. The final result is great, and Dave has decided he wants one too. I've already ordered the fabric for him, and if time permits I might make a Padme costume I've had sitting around. It all depends on how much time I have left once my halloween commissions are in. Here is a picture of the entire Jedi costume:

Why is it that whenever you take my picture for this blog I'm always wearing a yellow shirt underneath whatever it is I'm modeling?

Do I really own that many yellow shirts?

I also seem to quite often need a shave...

It must have something to do with these pictures being taken on weekends.

You know what I like: the "epic" pose that Dave adopts with the gaze off into the distance whenever there's a picture of him in a Jedi costume :)

What do you mean "whenever there's a picture?" That's how I walk around while wearing a Jedi robe.

And .... you wonder why Lissa is stalling about making you that costume? ;)
