Today's pasta count

66 orders of ravioli

55 orders of angel hair pasta

45 orders of fettucini.

Grand total of 9 hours, and goddamn I've got to get on breads next week. I pray and hope that the ravioli isn't too popular in the next week or I will be fucked for pre-musecon Prep.

Thanks to this, I do not have enough energy to actually converse with anyone online tonight, meaning the threads I should be tagging into won't get anything, possibly until sunday night. (9 hours hand-crnaking pasta will do it)

Trying to make hakama from internet instructions and not doing so well.

...really debating just finishing up my freakpants and wearing those instead along with the kimono and kosode, instead of the hakama.

Tabi, Sandals, Kosode and Kimono are done.

Obi is all that's left if I give up on the hakama.

I've got a month and a half to scramble to get things together. Paypal is waiting for my darling bank to give the goods for the supplies.

What I need to make between March 5th and now.

Dobuku or Happi Coat: Whichever takes less fabric

Hakama pants

kosode undergarment:length measurements taken. Work will commence after I iron out the fabric flat tomorrow. I've got more than 3 freaking yards of it.
Obi: ...need to dig through my fabric supplies but I think I can do a simple embroider on a sash and wear that.

Tabi: (Might cheat and make fake-ish ones from white gym socks)

Sandals: Have idea involved braided scraps of fabric from projects, something like a braided rug?

Get registered with Couch surfing for possible place to STAY: DONE, now to find someone

Purchase fabric for Hakama and Coat: DONE jesus I need to keep track of Jo Ann's sales because 6 yards for 75 cents a yard for a very light denim which is perfect? =D!! DONE. Kosode is going to be made from some unbleached muslin that I got in a garage sale and washed. Scraps will be used for embroider projects.

Bento business stuff
Design brand 'tags' to be printed on cardstock and stapled to bags of goods

Make 15 simple furoshiki $5(five red, five blue, five green, with white fabric)

Make 5 complex furoshiki $10 (use vintage cloth with red, blue, green and 2 white)

Make 3 pumpkin bag furoshiki ($30, basically windfall item)

Either find an old tall wicker wastebasket or see if there's someone who can build a simple wooden backpack of sorts. Otherwise I'll just have to pack and stash a large amount of stock in the car and carry small amounts through the con each day in the wicker picnic basket.
