The Three Musketeers

I'm really excited about the new Three Musketeers movie, I haven't seen it yet but I love a good swashbuckling film packed full of action and costumes. And, this movie stars Mathew McFadyen and Orlando Bloom. All the pictures make me want to do some costuming AND see the movie.









Have any of you seen it?
Off to unpack my sewing room...

Patterns

My husband and I just found out we are moving across the country for a new job! So I have been going through all my stuff and did some major destashing on my patterns. I put tons in my shop for a limited time. I'm not taking them with me so they are only available until we leave! (next Thursday) So take advantage and grab any you want!

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey

I'm getting more and more excited for The Hobbit to come out. I am rereading the book and have made some notes on costume descriptions from the book which has been interesting. The costumes in the film look nothing like I pictured but I think they are incredible.


Gandalf looks like he did in The Fellowship of the Ring as far as I can tell. My husband wants me to make him this costume so maybe someday I will have some study notes on it.
The Dwarves:
Thorin:

Kili and Fili:
Gloin and Oin:
Dwalin and Balin:
Dori, Ori and Nori:
Bombur, Bofur, and Bifur:
Hobbit holes are so cozy. I think I would love to live in one!
Aren't you excited?
Are any of you planning on making any costumes from the movie or inspired by Lord of the Rings? I haven't decided if I'm going to make myself anything but I think it would be fun! And Britton wants a Gandalf costume so...

Pixar's Brave

I'm really excited for this movie to come out! I don't even know what it's about really but it just looks amazing.
And even though it's animated...the costumes look awesome!
I can't wait to see it! Almost anything with medieval costumes and bow and arrows makes me happy! :)

Coming Soon

I've almost completed the knitting pattern for my fingerless gloves! I'm going to have a friend or two proof it to make sure I didn't forget anything or make it utterly confusing for you all.
I'm excited to share it with you! It will be in my shop and on Ravelry as soon as it's ready! I will let you know when. :)

Wedding Photos

I posted wedding photos over on my blog Simple Thread. Go have a look! :)

Disclaimer:

Although I continually talk about movie costumes on this blog, I am not a movie reviewer. Not all the films I discuss are recommended and I do not choose to review weather they are appropriate or not for the simple fact that every person's standards are different. Something that is fine for me may be offensive to some one else and visa versa. If you would like to look into the appropriateness of a title, I recommend pluggedinonline.com. I have not seen all the movies I discuss, and am simply interested in the art of clothes in film. I will leave you to decide for yourself if you will watch the movie or not.
