Okay, where did you find (or did you make?) Those awesome black tops you girls were wearing at Mudslide over/around the beautiful bras? They look uber comfy and have nice coverage when you're looking for that look. Which I kind of am, for the Ren show we do here in town. Thanks lovelies!

Re: Those beautiful black pieces.
Sat, February 16, 2008 - 10:14 AMWe made them -- they're an UBER comfy interlock knit. Very breathable, too, for Ren Faires. We were going to make some to sell at Muddslide, but didn't have enough time. We're definitely going to have a few to make at Fusion Fest. We could make you one -- they're going to go for $50 + shipping online -- want one?
Also, they can be made on colors other than black. I need to go back to the store & check all the available colors, but I do remember a brown, a navy blue and a dark green...I think. -

Re: Those beautiful black pieces.
Sat, February 16, 2008 - 1:34 PMwell, damn... Went by the fabric store this afternoon to double-check & they have dark brown, navy blue, light blue, light (mint) green, red & a beautiful peacock blue (I practically want to make an entire costume just to wear a peacock blue one). But, alas, no dark green. I'm gonna call around & see if I can find some. I'll let you know if I do. -

Sun, February 17, 2008 - 3:26 PMAnd the ones we're making now don't have the big bell sleeve on them -- they're a more normal, more manageable sleeve. -

Re: Those beautiful black pieces.
Sun, February 17, 2008 - 6:19 PMOoh, but I loved the sleeve. However, I can see how it would really get in the damn way while dancing. Hrm. I would love one, and black would be just fine for me. Want to talk about it this weekend?

Re: Those beautiful black pieces.
Tue, February 19, 2008 - 4:23 PMA little clarification on the "new" sleeve:
The new sleeve design has a bell of about 10 inches below the wrist. This is a LOT less, as the ones Xira & I have now have a bell of 28 inches (not kidding). While it's neato in concept, it's really a pain in the ass when it comes to ANY actual dancing. Move your arms a little & smack yourself in the face EVERY TIME. So the 10-inch bell still has enough style/panache without being extremely irritating. Should do ya all just fine. Will even probably make some for Xira & I to dance in as well... :)
