Silly Holidays: Play God Day

A few days ago I found a website about silly holidays.  I found some to be just plain dumb, but others were humorous.  Imagine every day being a holiday!  Bye bye, sanity!  LOL

So what holiday is it today?
How insane is that?
So me reading into it what I want to read into it, I determined it must be telling me to play Travis’ new God of War III on PS3!
Play I did!  I whooped some Olympian butt!  LOL  And found that thru the beautiful brutality of it lurked inspiration!  The animators were very creative with their designs.  Most of them provocative and many simply mesmerizing.  What inspirational pieces for a little cosplay!
WHOO HOO!
So how many of you gamers out there still haven’t realized that Kratos is wearing a skirt?!  LOL

Week 1: Comfort the Sickies

Here we are.  At the start of a 52 week long project of refashioning frenzy.  Thank you to anyone who has joined my support team.  And thank you to those that have helped me thru this rocky start despite my being extremely sick!  Now on with the show!

Some of you may have guessed what I was making by the theme.  Other’s may have guessed based on Wednesday’s sneak peek.  Here’s a refresher:

The starting material for this project was a dark grey blanket.  I, also, used some “barberry red” bias tape that my MIL passed to me in a treasure trove of Great Grand’s old crafting supplies.  I had the thread for it.  So all together, this week cost me $0 of my project budget!  Such a spender, huh?  LOL

And here are the PJ’s:

Yup!  You guessed it!  PJ’s!  I didn’t make a top to go with it, because I knew I wouldn’t wear it.  I always wear Travis’ t-shirts with my PJ pants.  For the waist, I used the same bias tape to match the mask.  There is elastic hidden inside to keep them up.

Not bad for week #1, huh?
As of this morning, I am on antibiotics.  So as soon as I feel better, you’ll see me “hit it like a hurricane!”  (And return to my beloved kitchen!)  Keep coming back Friday nights for more of the 52 Week Wardrobe!  And catch bonus refashions as well as other randomness along the way!

I snuggle up in my PJ’s to some classic rock (old rock) as I leave you with a project that I found online that I really felt matched the theme.  It would be a great project to try next time I am robbing my bean bag toys for beans for hacky sacks!  LOL
