Project Runway Game 8 ~ The Pumpkin Patch Party Challenge WINNERS POSTED!

That's okay, I too have been on some medications to turn my brains to goo before they do what they are supposed to do...If they are what your body needs; they will. Take your time...and don't push yourself too hard and let them do what they are supposed to do. I am currently on a new migraine medication that is supposed to help with the migraine induced seizures..so far so good. Good Luck..

 

Aw, don't worry about it elfmoon! My brain is always 'dispersed' LOL

the translator put it upside down! don't to put halloween clothes ^ ^ I realize now that was read, i am sorry for the misunderstanding

 

Are there any updates with any of the other contestants?

 

ok I now if creating one clothing of halloween

 

I have my main part of my costume done just need to finish the accessories and the treat bag. Hopefully they will come out as planned.

 

As predicted, after making cute little pants, I got inspired in a completely different direction so now have to start from scratch. I don't have any sketches as my creativity comes out at the time of actually doing stuff LOL really sucks when you have to plan things... anyway, all I'm going to say is that my theme is "The Frog Prince" Hope I can deliver.

 

haha, yes, I have another tiny and I can make a costume for him, or it could be just regular pants - they were made from a Halloween themed kitchen towel LOL

hehe, some frogs are cute!!

 

So, I went to the store and bought all of my supplies. While I was at the store, I ran across a soft plastic turtle and picked him up so that I could gut him and use his shell for part of my bag. It was only after I got home that I realized this might be against the rules. So judges, can I mutilate a solid plastic turtle and use his shell along with fabric to make a bag or is the shell too much like something bought at the store? I would like to know before I start the deconstruction process on the turtle because it would be time and labor intensive to get the shell to a usable state. I can post a picture of the original turtle if it would help you make your decision.

Thanks.

 

Poor Mr. Turtle!!!
hahaha I just couldn't get over the "mutilated turtle" bit lol

 

Um, elfmoon, she has the crown thingy, the rules say either a head item or a face item. Is this a typo? Are we supposed to have both then?

 

Here is the generous Mr. Turtle who has offered to donate his life in the name of fashion. My doll's hand is in there for size reference. I intend to cut off his head and legs and then hollow out his "body" so that all I have left is his back shell. I will then hot-glue some fabric to the inside of his shell to form a bag, leaving the top, where his head was, open so that candy can easily be dropped in. The bag will have one strap on the fabric side so that it can be worn on one shoulder and double as an accessory for my doll's Ninja Turtle outfit.

I got the right dremel bit today and hollowed out Mr. Turtle's shell. What a mess!


Inside of the shell and what I have of Sara's dress so far.

 

LOL..well...I just finished a panic attack and made a face veil...LOL....LOL...I can post it...giggle...wanna see it anyways???? LOL....

 

here it is.

 

I was wondering if I had forgotten something...see...I had taken her outfit off...undid her hair lace-up with the red ribbon...and put the outfit up for sale...only to think...giggle...that somehow I had forgotten...snicker...to make something....oh my....nope...its okay...I have those kinds of days myself...when I have had not enough coffee and not enough sleep and wayyyyy too much to do on my hands...so its all right...not offended or upset...just laughing a whole lot...and the outfit gets an extra bit for free...

 

I'm attempting to knit my entire costume but I have a question. Can I use an existing lace knitting pattern? Like, say I found a nifty lace stitch in a hat pattern that I want to use in a coat, the coat itself I would be designing, but I would be using the existing lace stitch pattern.

run for your life >O< , a mummy!



Patron is not there, ^ ^ are a lot of bands for people

 

elfmoon, I'm not using premade lace. I'm talking about KNITTING a lace pattern. Nothing is premade.

 

Ok. Cool. I didn't THINK I had to, but I wanted to make sure. Thanks.

 

oh =0 ok ^^ but for sewing bands did not move ^ ^

 

Drat...was so busy totally forgot about this Can't wait to see everyone's designs!

 

I've got mine about half done, ^.^ The main pieces are finished and now it's on to the accessories and detailing. If I have enough time I'm going to try doing some beading on this.

 

Oh I had an almost panic attack!! I thought the deadline was on Monday for some stupid reason <.<
I am so relieved that we have two more weekends yay!!

I feel bad for Cupricyo and language barrier I wish I spoke Spanish.

 

I will try again to have >o< damn translator

 

-_- Mr Turtle is proving to be harder to mutilate than originally hoped...Sometime next week I hope to go to the hardware store and see what they have to offer in the way of large dremmel bits.

 

hmm, are we making a turtle soup?? (cries) That's a really good idea to boil it to soften it.
How about sawdering (spelling?) gun to melt it off. It might smell bad, though...

I have the set and the plastic cutting edge is basically a hot knife exacto blade tip that heats up and cuts plastic...you should look it up and see if it would work for you better than just a soldering tip. it would give you better cutting ease and would make less of a mess. That and if you are going to use a hot knife you should think of doing it in a well ventilated place such as a back porch or a shop or garage.

 

Oh my! Thank you guys for all the helpful advice! He is a soft plastic. I got his appendages off with a saw and am having trouble hollowing out the shell. It is mainly a matter of what is available in my garage was not the right tool for the job.

 

I can try to upload another photo?

 

I'm not even 1/3 of the way done knitting my costume entry.... I think I may be changing my idea soon.

 

I'm taking my time and really enjoying the creative process of this project. I'm having so much fun with my idea! I'll have no problems meeting the deadline...other than being a little sad when all this fun is finally over. But then my girl will have a new costume to enjoy, and that will remind me of all the fun I had creating it.

 

wiiiii i'am happy =D!

 

I want whatever "happy" water you guys are drinking :P Just started with my project and I think I can execute the idea if I do a bit every day from now on. It's just hard after an hour or so of commute home in traffic *yuck!*
I was making little pants for my boy and made a mistake, but it actually turned out for the better as I came up with a better idea from that LOL

 

hahaha I was just looking at a nice 'corked' bottle in my fridge
And yes, I had at least hand sewn sweaters that one sleeve was inside out but on the other hand, I've made some pretty interesting things (and clothes) just by accident lol

 

LOL..it's not really happy water. I made my costume for Emmaline in two days because I thought it had to be designed, sewn and photographed in that time. I understand now that it was a typo...LOL..but at that time I was up to the challenge, or so I thought because I watch the actual Project Runway show on Television and they usually have only two days to come up with something the same way. I was just making it smaller for a doll. I have a few patterns for her that I can use as starters. I fold a large piece of paper and then trace the half of the patterns for the larger pieces on the fold. Like the vest back. I then add design elements..Like the tentacles at the bottom and the neckline. I then do the same for the vest front but make sure that the lapel is slightly different from any regular kind of lapel. I use a duct tape body double to fit the outfit on so that I know how I will need to pinch in the pattern once I cut it out with scrap muslin and mark any changes with pins, and a permanent pen. I then mark out all changes on the paper patterns so that i have them later as well. It was fun creating this costume as I bonded two types of fabric together to make the vest. the outer fabric is a cotton batik and the inner lining is silk bonded together using an iron on interfacing called heatNbond.the heavy duty grade.
it made it stiff enough to hold the eyelets and not shred when I sewed the seams using a satin stitch on my sewing machine. Most of the supplies for the outfit came from the office supply/scrapbook supply area of the sewing and craft store. the butterflies, the stars, and eyelets were office/scrapbook supplies and the ribbons came from the sewing supply area. The fabrics were scraps from a costume I made earlier on this year. Her Shoes are made with the cotton batik and lined in felt using the same eyelets as I wanted the outfit to have continuity. I enjoyed entering thank you for letting me.
