So I am doing Ahsoka Tano Season 3/4 atm it's a work in progress I have a new dress that I am going to modify:
Please ignore the tank top underneath I was playing with the kids
My two new lightsabers, the little saber actually has two different discs in it to be a different green but it doesn't show up in pics for some reason.
Here's the back and yes I am aware no zippers. Fyr, Swiv and I are working out a way where we can make the hole in the back bigger and still have it retain it's shape.
This was my original costume made out of cotton because the sewing machine wouldn't take any stretchy material it would get caught and rip!
There is the back of it, and once again please ignore the pants and tank top! |

I have two WIPs going at the moment. The older one, "Greetings from Fyr" which will probably become a Jedi General, has taken a bit of a back burner to complete "A Corellian Jedi WIP".
Here's the Corellian...
It has progressed somewhat since this picture, and is nearly ready for submittal to the LCJs.
While the General is still at concept stage with cloth bought.
Concept;
And cloth swathes.
From left to right;
Inner tunic and pants, light ochre cotton.
Outer tunic, sleeveless maroon gambeson.
Obi and Tabards, rich ochre cotton weave.
I'm also helping with Foxtom's Healer Jedi. I'm posting it here, as he is unlikely to spend much time on the forums.

Thank you, Rick. So do I!
Most exciting for Saber Arena is bringing a second independent out of the cold and getting ready for submittal. Our Qui-Gon bears a remarkable resemblance to the original and his costume is almost ready for submittal, as well!

I'm currently working on a Juno costume, and I've gotten some new fabric for a new jedi tunic and tabards. I'm sticking with the same colour scheme that I have, but I want to play around with the fit. I've seen other people put a seam in the waist and make the bottom a bit more like a half circle / circle shape. |

As of this weekend I finally have all the fabrics for my Jedi (just missing belt and lightsaber).
After dying a heap if test swatches and getting a colour sort of close to what I was after but a little dark, I went ahead and dyed just shy of 3m of pearl (off white but not quite cream) cheesecloth a slightly uneven green brown gray colour which I love (was aiming for more of a really light green brown so is a bit darker than planned and I know I couldn't make this again if I tried) so with the other fabrics I'm now ready to start.
Today I fixed my basic block so tomorrow I can start on the patterns as decided to make under tunic and tunic from scratch instead of modifying an existing pattern.
Using purchased pants for the time being and will look at upgrading those when I find a fabric I like that works with the rest. _________________ Kat |

We had a fantastic photo shoot on the weekend. Three new members are submitting their costumes (mine's already in the queue) and Swiv is resubmitting his... Minus the Nautolian mask!

Great work guys. I look forward to seeing your costumes in the judging queue. _________________ "It's not the size of the Jedi or the amount of power running through her lightsaber, but the strength of her heart." |

I can't take credit for that. Kelly did the photoshop, and without Darrell and the guys it never would have been possible.
