reasons why yesterday’s Frozen processional was super magical

-favorite!Elsa was there

-DimplesMcCuteface!Kristoff was there

-One of the skiers handed me one of his ski poles and we had a fencing duel.

-One of the skaters, as he breezed past me, was all like “You’re great on the Great Movie Ride! Loved your show!” and I died completely.

YES I KNOW NOT SO SCARY IS IN LIKE 36 HOURS SHUT UPPPP.

So far this is what I have for my Cinderella rags dress. Not much. Basically I’ve shaped the bodice with darts (the outer and the lining) and attached the skirt so it can hang. (Circle skirts have to hang at least 24 hours because otherwise the bias won’t stretch properly and you’ll be left with a really bizarre hem.)

Did I mention I also have to make a fairy godmother dress/cloak combo for my friend? Because I have to do that too.

Basically all the sewing has to happen. Wish me luck.

Cinderella pieces are cut!

I firmly believe in the art of frankensteining- mixing and matching pattern pieces to assemble the desired piece. So this is a combination of three different patterns, plus some of my own calculations!

Simplicity 1873 view C bodice front (2)

Simplicity 1873 view C bodice back (4)

Simplicity 4236 view A skirt (1 on fold, 2 on selvage) (it’s just a circle skirt piece, so you can find tutorials pretty easily)

Simplicity 2443 sleeve (2) (although any basic sleeve piece will work; I just grabbed the nearest pattern)

4 pocket pieces (I don’t even know what pattern it’s from. I just keep a pocket pattern piece in my sewing kit in case of pocket emergencies.)

1 apron skirt: fabric width by 15"

1 apron waistband: waist measurement by 5"

2 apron waist ties: fabric width by 5"

And also a cat. Thanks, Hiccup.

in which I accidentally get sassy with guests

So this guy and his wife scanned their fastpasses and then stood there blocking the entrance because they were waiting for the rest of their family. After five minutes I told them to either keep moving forward or step aside to wait for their family. The guy refuses, so I repeat it. He says “no, no, no” and holds up a “one minute” finger directly in my face. I repeat the request, and he starts yelling and tells me to shut up. I tell him “don’t tell me to shut up, sir, I am doing my job” and he continues to yell. I repeat both requests AGAIN and He finally moves forward in the line (I’m scanning fastpasses and people are trying to get past him through all of this) and then runs back in.

“What your name? Kate-leen?”

And at this point, I am ten kinds of Not Having It, so as he runs away I call “THAT IS NOT MY NAME, SIR. THAT IS NOT HOW YOU PRONOUNCE IT.”

Oops.
