Peter and I went to the movies yesterday and finally saw FF2. Over all I thought it was a better movie that the first one. It didn’t suffer from villain overload that Spidey 3 had. It had the right amount of scum and villainy. The actors seemed much more comfortable with the characters this time around. The special effects supported rather than overwhelming the story. There was a plot with a beginning, a middle and an end. There was tons of little references to classic Fantastic Four comics and scenes up to and including one with Stan “the Man” Lee. And the Surfer totally rocked.<\/p>\n
In the land of costuming, I got some difficult sewing done without killing my machine or my family. Why do some fabrics fight you all the way when you are trying to shape them? Also it was one of those looooong stitched where you have to rethread the bobbin because you run out of thread. Also I got some bad thread. This really irritated me because I spent the extra money to get a good thread (coats) and it kept snagging and breaking. Now the snags were on the thread itself which showed lots of imperfections when I was doing some hand sewing after I finished one of the stitched of Heck.<\/p>\n
Today I plan to do more sewing and more cutting of fabric. If I can get two more pieces to the hand sewing stage I will be happy. I do need to sit down and write out what I have left to do so I can figure out my attack plan. My goal is to get every thing done by the end of next week so I have a few days to breath before the convention starts.<\/p>\n
I am grateful for getting those nasty stitches done with my fingers mostly intact.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
