- Belle from Beauty and the Beast or Jane from Tarzan: a gorgeous soft yellow light upholstery weight watermark fabric. Crisp and beautiful! I would guess I have close to 10 yards of this.
- Arwen's chase dress from Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring: a deep gray microfiber suede. I must warn you, this is very static-y, but a little fabric softener may tame it. 60 inches wide, five yards.
- Obi-Wan or Anakin Skywalker Jedi robe from Star Wars: Rich brown crinkled cotton--yeah, the originals were wool, but what kid wants to run around in scratchy wool? I underestimated my brother's height when I bought this, but it would be perfect for a smaller Jedi. 6 yards, 45 inches wide.
- Aayla Secura from Star Wars: Am I really ever going to paint myself blue? Not likely. I have a few yards of brown snakeskin print cotton for her top, and some beautiful faux leather for the contrast and her accessories.
- Jane Austen fans wanting to be Elizabeth Bennett or Emma Woodhouse: I found some gorgeous windowpane check sheer fabric. I think it was supposed to be for drapes, but can you imagine how beautiful it would be as an overlay on a Regency gown? I have six yards each of white and creme.
That's it for now. . .let me know if anything catches your eye!

I love your portfolio! I'm interested in purchasing one of your dresses. I'd really like the white Arwen dress from Rivendell but i know you said you probably wont make it again. In that case i'd like either the Belle dress or Elizabeth from Pirates. You can contact me at kinomoto25@yahoo.com. Thanks for your time!

Hi Christina--unfortunately I'm booked for Halloween this year. The Belle fabric is still available for purchase if you have a friend who could sew the costume for you. So sorry, but best of luck in your search!
