Another project added to the list

     I'm always adding to my project list.  I just can't tell myself no.  I add costumes, crafts, and home projects to an ever growing list of things that do eventually get done, but the add rate far exceeds the completion rate.
I see something cool and start making mental note, pinning stuff on Pinterest, chatting on forums...
     The part of my brain that manages the list is saying, "Beth.  What are you doing? Beth? Stahp!"  I waved my hands and said loud things to that part of my brain to distract it while I add another costume to the list!

     Already a member of the 501st with my Darth Traya costume, I've decided to tackle another one!  Senator Viqi Shesh! Never heard of her? Star Wars Expanded Universe novels, New Jedi Order and the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, specifically.  She's a bit of a baddie...

     She's got an awesome outfit, though, and my hair color and eye color fit for not having to do too much work other that the costume itself and accessories!
     There are, naturally, specific guidelines for completing this costume, and I'm looking forward to working on it.  I'll likely work from the inside out, and the bottom layer is a white jumpsuit/unitard.  Today, I acquired the pattern I think will work for the basic shape. Alterations will have to be done for the sleeves at the wrist and possibly the neckline.
 


So excited!
