Yes, Seryn, love, it's definitely time to get on the ball with this. Because you know what's going to happen: You and I are going to end up making most of the costumes. The sooner we get started, the better. Because you have an Elizabeth Swann costume to make and I have a pirate captain coat to make and 5,000 Jayne hats to knit and goodness knows what else. We're going to be busy bees between now and September.

Very simple designs, but doable!

Seryn, was I overlooked, or is it a private toga party? Just curious. I'm making arrangements to attend D*C next year.

If you need ideas about making togas, check out togaboy. It's a hoot as well as informative.

Wow. Who knew there were so many different styles for a toga. And let me be the first to generously (as in I will pay) volunteer for someone to make my costume!
Unless were all just doing the throw the sheet around your waist thing, but even that looks complicated to a costuming dimwit such as myself.

Sorry! I'm a doofus.
Yey for you coming to D*C!
And its not private at all, the more the merrier (its not like we're going to run out of deities.
Mai - if you want help i'll gladly help you. I think it might be possible to make crinkle fabric tunics for them as want them, then they just provide the bedsheets and we do the arranging at D*C.
but let me know what you had in mind.
Isn't sanity really a one trick pony, anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking! But when you're good and crazy...ooh hoo hoo hoo... the skys the limit!

Aaaah, Seryn, you're not a doofus. Sometimes there are just too many posts to read and remember. I'm looking forward to all of the fun and frivolity.
I read the posts from last year, and it sounds like everyone had a great time.
