ladyofthethreadYesterday turned out to be pretty awesome. *_*
I went fabric shopping and picked up 11 yards of silk shantung to make Lia’s Russian portrait dress from Le Chevalier for AnimeNext. (It’s a somewhat long story why my costume choice suddenly changed from Valentine but I’ll get into that next time. ^_^;;)
Then, I went to visit with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
neoangelwink and athena_chan for a couple of hours before going home. We chatted while they worked on hats and it was nice to get a chance to hang out outside of an event since we haven’t done that for a while. ^_^ I also brought along supplies and showed them how to make sakura flowers like the ones I did as hairpins for my Sakura Matsuri outfit.
thedreamerworld finished editing the photos from the Count D kimono shoot we did at the botanic garden a few weeks ago so I have more pretty costume pictures. ^_^
Plus, I looked at the front page of cosplay.com last night and saw that my comments tab was highlighted. Then, I looked a little further down and realized the preview shot fromthedreamerworld that I’d posted a few weeks back had been added as a showcase photo! O_O
I tend to drag my feet about updating my cosplay.com gallery since I’m lazy about typing up descriptions and there doesn’t seem to be much interest there nowadays in my obscure cosplays. (Several of the other photos I’ve uploaded there within the past few weeks have gotten less than 50 views and no comments.) That particular photo with the cherry blossoms was the most popular out of what I’ve put up in the last month but this was still completely out of the blue. I don't post much on there anymore and the last time I had something showcased on the site was my 19th Century Count D, over 2 years ago!
It’s kind of nuts how popular the cherry blossom photo has suddenly become with the showcase. o_o;;; As of now, it’s up to over 1,100 views (it was under 200 before yesterday), putting it into my top 4 most viewed photos of all time on cosplay.com (and I made my account there in 2003!). Plus, it has become my second most commented photo on there ever. At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if it hit number 1 for both.
And apparently, my brother’s little Sakura Matsuri gallery was also yesterday's link of the day on the ACP facebook, so I was kind of featured there, too! o_o
Anyway, here are a few pics from the D kimono photoshoot. The full set is onthedreamerworld’s Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/judithstephens/sets/72157623787349417/
And I like these as detail shots of my appliqué work.
This one is actually from Anime Boston.
