13th April 2013: Getting closer.... Very rough cut, but with a bit of sandpaper (and some luck) we might get there this time.
13th April 2013: Laying out So we measured out and then cut into vaguely the right proportions then marked out for further cutting.
13th April 2013: Base material 2 Eat your heart out Mikken!
13th April 2013: Base material 1 We've finished decorating....
8th April 2013: Then again.. So having failed horribly at the practice sword, we're going to try and do Needle because that will be soooo much easier (won't it?)
6th April 2013: No sword :( Our sword making skills are poo......
30th October 2012: Try again Switched back to in progress as we're determined to make the sword and give this one a proper airing.
29th October 2012: Ack - crappy trains Ended up late getting to Expo due to train delays, so after the mad rush to get the costume finished, poor El had about an hour in it before having to get changed for the masquerade...
Drat.
27th October 2012: Crikey that was close.. Mad rush today to make the blouse and finish the trousers due to other things on. Icky moment when we released we'd sewed the sleeves on back to front (oh, how we laughed...no, thinking about it we didn't). Just need to tighten everything up and add another drawstring thingy and we're done. No sword for Expo though :(
1st October 2012: At last Hacked and slayed the trousers to a better fit and started sewing up...
23rd July 2012: Material Found the material! We can finally start making and cutting...
19th June 2012: And so it begins... Starting working how to do this.
The top looks more difficult than we thought (those ruffs at the top) but we'll work it out

Fantastic!! I cannot wait to see this!!

Starbucks dad - 1st October 2012
:)
Thanks. Finally got going, big decision is do we try for the sword as well..eep. Els' all for it but time, time, time.....
Toshi-chan - 1st October 2012 It would be amazing to have the sword as well for photos but the expo hall is pretty strict about props so you might have a nuisance with it if you're coming and going a lot.
Starbucks dad - 2nd October 2012
Hmm. Good point....
*scurries off to read the rules*
carsec - 27th October 2012 very nice, how is she wearing her hair?
Starbucks dad - 29th October 2012 Thanks. Went for plaits, but her hair's not really long enough to pull it off. Must get hair extensions for next time.
MoonLily - 29th October 2012 Ahhh your little girl came up to me backstage when I was dressed as Arya and she was so sweet! <3 Sadly I missed seeing this in person but it looks adorable! ^^
nanahara - 29th October 2012 she really does suit Arya so well ^^, nicely done indeed
Starbucks dad - 30th October 2012
Thank you both.
MoonLily, thanks for spending some time with her on Sunday - it was very kind of you.
Fishyfins - 2nd November 2012 She made a perfect Arya! was nice seeing her on sunday, however briefly :)
Sephirayne - 2nd November 2012 She makes an amazing Arya. Great job.
Starbucks dad - 11th November 2012 Thank you!
carsec - 4th February 2013 yes, the syrio/arya proyect will be awesome you must do it some of these years... GoT is a classic so not big deal if it takes for ever :-)
Starbucks dad - 4th February 2013 It's Syrio's hair and beard that's stopping me!
Numta - 9th April 2013
Looking great as always!
Hope things pan out making needle! Sword making can be a nightmare >.< lol
Starbucks dad - 13th April 2013 Thanks Numta - making the "proper" sword seems to be going easier than the other one - so fingers crossed we might actually finish this one!
Siouxsie James - 5th May 2013 Awesome and just adorable!! :D
Starbucks dad - 5th May 2013 :) Thank you
