Hi all, I just wanted to take the time to pop in and say hello! I recently moved to TX and live in Weatherford. I look forward to learning a lot from you gals....

Hey again, girls! I’m sorry to keep begging for advice, but Dickens is only two months away, and I have a lot of sewing to do! When I made my Elizabethan...
... Hey, Starr! The pattern says to use: *** Corset (the layer you were asking about): Coutil, Jean, Drill, Cavalry Twill (Tricotine), Whipcord, Sateen, Medium...
Okay, so we've all had time to vote on a location for our first meeting, and I'd love to keep the ball moving so we don't lose steam. I saw that it was a...
Since I'm down in Austin, I vote for the meeting to be on a weekend, so it's easier for me to attend. And definitely a hairpiece/wig workshop! I have been...
Funny this should come up. I was just telling Julie the other day how I love doing hairpieces and wigs. I was in a play and had very short hair but the...
... I've been wondering as well when we'd start planning on a date. I won't be at the Dickens fest (at least this year anyway), and I can't remember what...
Hi there. Don't any of you folks travel to the big Dickens on the Strand Festival in Galveston? Seems that's the same weekend as the McKinney thing. Can you...
I'm all for a meeting soon, but I would hope that we could do it on a weeknight if possible, in order to include the people that are currently involved with...
Hi Starr! You should be able to find all the materials you need at www.corsetmaking.com These people are Super nice and should have everything you need. And...

I'm ok to meet on a weekday, but I won't be able to leave downtown dallas until at least 6:30 or 7, so I may be getting wherever we meet a little late. If we...
Hey Everyone, Time for poll #2! Having our fist meeting at my house won out this time around but don't worry; this is only in this instance. Now to figure out...
Thank you very much for the feedback, Maggie! My problem is *where* to get the coutil. Is that something I would have to buy online only? I've never seen it...
Looks like I cannot edit the poll right now; if the aswneres don't give a clear answer here I'll re-make another poll once it shows that. For now, if there are...
I don't think you can get it retail anywhere around here. You might be able to order it from a boutique/family fabric shop, but I think your best bet is just...
... That's a good point. I know there will never be a time when *everybody* can come, but we can put out email newsletters after the meetings to keep...
I’m actually very familiar with the fabric wholesale places on Harry Hines & Midway too. I was just hoping I could get something local without having to ...
Saturday and Sunday afternoons are neck and neck right now; only 10 of our 18 members have voted. Please be sure to cast your vote asap! Thanks! Traci...
I'm not sure the poll is working right for me. I've voted for Sunday afternoon and when I press "vote" nothing happens. So if my vote went through, Yay! If...
Anybody else going to the Scifi Expo in Plano this weekend? I will be going for at least one day, but most likely both days. I will definately be wearing my...
I’m going to the Sci-Fi expo Sunday, but I’m not wearing any sort of costume. Starr ... From: DFWICG@yahoogroups.com [mailto:DFWICG@yahoogroups.com] On...
Hey Ladies, I need a bit of help. I have been invited to a costume party (last minute for me) with a theme of Heros and Villians. I am trying to get some...
You have to start by deciding either who/what you wish to portray, or how much work you're willing to do. "Quick and Easy" hero/villain costumes, that almost...
I am not doing well on ideas at all :( . But Mata Hari sounds like fun! Let me know if you want to get together and sew sometime. I can come over there...
Hi gals. Mata Hari would be fun and easy to do. I have several pics of her.. however. she isn't an easily recognizable character for less cultured souls and...
