12 of 12 - June

This month's 12 of 12 is a little half-assed, as I forgot it was the 12th until well into the afternoon. *blush* It was a boring, rainy Saturday, where we sat in watching movies while I worked on some sewing.

Today I introduced The Boy to Ferris Bueller's Day Off. he approved.

This is Timmy. I am sewing him a Jedi costume. For real. Thinkgeek.com put out a request to crafty people, asking to make their mascot, Timmy, some costumes to wear to ComicCon this summer. I volunteered to make his Jedi costume, which includes pants, tunic, robe, and light saber. They even sent me a Timmy-clone so that I could be sure to make the right size. It's harder to make clothes for a monkey than you might think. I'm almost done now, though. Just have to hem the robe. And figure out how he will hold the light saber.

I don't understand how it's possible, but I don't have any hook-and-eyes in my ginormous collection of sewing and craft supplies. I need one for Timmy's robe. So I'm stealing one off a bra.
