Star Wars Celebration II and III (2002 and 2005)

I seem to not have taken many pics at CII, just some film ones (I think?) of the costumes on display:

I also apparently didn't take many at CIII either, but that might have been because I was walking around in a Benedryl-induced stupor and was suffering from a lack of sleep.

I did, however, meet a Lando.  Oh, and my Leia Bespin and Picnic costumes was done! Actually, I remember frantic-ly gluing sequins to that picnic skirt, trying to get the costume done. Even my husband helped. And then I don't think I wore it much.  That's how it goes I guess.

Also, by this time, the lovely  SisterSola had started going to Cons with our group - another person I'm so glad to still be friends with!

Surlygirlie also had a Bespin costume with amazing embroidery, and she generously shared her embroidery pattern with me.  I wouldn't have finished mine without her!

My first DragonCon, when I still only the handful of people I came to the Con with!

Ever After "Ruins" dress

This was one of my first costumes (post Jedi), and it wasn't very good. I redid the bodice in 2006.

Here is the web page for my costume with my research and more photos:

Here's a pic from when I originally made the gown in 2002.
