Costuming workshop and social meet-up (March, 2013)

Following on from the great meet-up at Michaela's last month, plans are coming together for a March installment of the 2013 Costuming Workshop and Social Meet-Up series. :)

The next scheduled date will be at our place (Birkenhead) on Saturday 30th March. We've selected this date for a couple of reasons...that will be 1 month since the last session, which seems to be a useful frequency, and it also coincides with Kristy's 30th birthday (a couple of days earlier), so we've got an excuse to serve up a big cake at lunch time. :woot:

If you're interested in costuming and keen to come along, send me a message. The emphasis is on Rebel/Good Guy costumes, but we won't turn you away if you have other Star Wars projects you want to get involved with. It will be an all day event to make it worthwhile attending for current or prospective members who are from other regions - starting from 10:30am, and running through to about 5:30pm.

If you want to get advice about any costumes, help others with their costume projects, make progress on your own projects, or just swap ideas and discuss Good Guy costuming in general, this will be a great opportunity. We'll have on hand examples of Rebel Pilots, Clones, Royalty costumes, Jedi, and more.

Awesome.

Based on a couple of tentative RSVPs I've got , there's going to be some interesting projects and show-and-tell pieces on hand.

No pressure, but do you wanna bring that Vader head for a comparison photoshoot?

Hi

I'm Cameron and I recently moved up to Auckland.

I have been busy planning my stormtrooper build and would love to come out this weekend to meet some of you and see some of your awesome costumes.

Cheers
