Elsa Sequin testing Small problem with trying to get photos, the sequins flash green mostly when vertical, when flat they look really purple. But in scale they are a nice match to the sequined fabric and do indeed blend in between the other sequins. So these are the Athena “green aqua” cornflower blue which…

Quickie update, state of the Elsa, Maleficent and me.
Quickie update, state of the Elsa, Maleficent and me. I need to leave soon to get the final of a three step vaccine. And next week have to go to hospital for a blood test (to make sure my body has not gone a bit skewy with the old cortisol and not producing any) which…
Elsa sequins
Elsa sequins May 15, 2014 by michaela de bruce Well here’s an interesting thing. I used a cutter to just test how my various materials look as cut properly. Turquoise upper left, Blue Iris upper right, cornflower blue lower left. Under natural lights the turquoise is darkly mirrored, it’s not as pale as it appears…
Elsa, plans being tested and they work :)
Elsa, plans being tested and they work 🙂 May 14, 2014 by michaela de bruce Just a super short test using a test pattern. That is the Shimmer Sheetz cut in to 10mm squares. The test cutting patterns also do rounded rectangles 🙂 The smaller the shapes the more glassy they look 🙂 So I’ll see if…
Elsa screencaps and musings :)

My @JosyRose_Tweet sequin film arrived :)
The colour is gorgeous! Super pale! Super pale, I was worried it would be quite dark but it’s only just warmer than my Shimmer Sheetz, not darker. To the recharged camera! It’s a very similar thickness and the film is still a bit fragile however when you see the state the post bag…
Aiee!!
Given how badly everything is going right now in terms of costuming I think it may be a case of being too tired to actually do all this stuff. So I think I’m going to start printing and drawing and will actually sculpt the horns because yes. It is all total pants right now. If…
Another sequin source :)
Sadly they don’t have an opaque aqua or subtle turquoise but look: http://www.josyrose.com/sc-sequin_film-1307.aspx I hadn’t really understood the site the first time I visited so only saw the sequin waste but they do indeed have narrow sequin strips (83X5000mm) which are just wide enough to go through stamping and cutting machines and to be hand…
