It is complete!

It is complete and handed over!  I don't think I've ever been happier to be done with a project!  This one has been a major thorn!  I've been having nightmares over this stinkin thing!  Ok well here are the pics!  I'm to tired to say much more!  Once I figure out how to get the video up of the tiger in action I'll add it!

Tiger update!

Well the suit its self is done the only I like is the shoes, gloves and head!  So as long as things stay on course and work out as planned it will be done, ready and at the game on friday night!  I have people messaging me on facebook asking me how its coming and everything they are all really excited and can't wait to see it!  This is the biggest news in this sleepy little town this week!  I'm not so sure I like being the center of attention in this little town!  I'm one of those that likes to keep to myself!  Off to work on the shoes! 

Never ever ever.......

Again will I let anyone know I can sew/quilt because me being the nice person I am has gotten me in deep!  So yesterday I got on facebook for my daily thing and I have a message.....  1st sign of something was up...  so I open it and its my old choir director asking if I could make this tiger costume for the football games.  2nd was stupid me said yeah if you have a pattern ....  Note to self learn your freakin mouth shut......  Well of course he has the pattern all he needed to do was go and get the material!   Well last night he comes by and brings me this huge bag from Hancocks with all the things needed to make the costume minus a sewing machine!  I mean he even bought thread and all!  Now I don't mind making it for him one bit!  He is an awesome man and an inspiration.  He was and is the one person outside of family that I can talk to and that will listen and give the inspiration and advice!  He's like I'll pay you to make it and I told him its fine I don't mind (I truly don't)  but he's insisting and so I have finally gave up the argument!  

Well now its off to get ready to go to my grandmas house so I have room to stretch out the 6 yards of fabric and patterns to cut and get to work on this costume!  I'm hoping to have the most of it done to where I can have him try it on wednesday for any last minute adjustments and hoping maybe I can finish this by friday .....  I know I'm dreaming, I'm crazy or whatever else you wanna call me but when I'm on a deadline I get tunnel visioned when I sit down at the machine and always manage to pull through on my deadline!....  So wish me luck here I am off to go make the best looking tiger costume around!   HA HA HA!
