Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I don't have any photos, but I have done a mediocre Ithilien Ranger, from Lord of the Rings(black cloth mantle/fauld, silver tree pattern on the chest, black pants, leather belt, forest green cape), Dark Jedi,(black trench coat, black cape, black cloth belt, black cloth mask that covers only the lower half of the face), and I am currently assembling a medieval Scottish peasant outfit... but its severely low budget, so I can't get any fur for it. Yeah... I'm strictly ameture, as needed, but I still like to do it.

Hi
I haven't been here much lately but I would love to find someone who makes worship arts garments.
Well, I don't know about other people, but if I had a picture of the finished desired product I could certainly try!

All my friends would be pretty surprised though!

I've made a few costumes when asked by family and friends. It was great fun. You must be quite a seamstress to do animals, however.

among my challenges were:
a butterfly costume for an adult lady
a Pocohontas (spelling?), adult also
a Grinch for a little boy
lamb costumes for kids in a Christmas play
a Queen Esther for a lady

(fmsmom
pardon my ignorance, but what are 'worship arts' garments? Sounds interesting.)

I am a TOTAL costume freak!!! One of my nicknames in college was "Costume Woman," because I ran around campus in strange costumes from time to time... :) I make all kinds of costumes, by the way, anything that suits my fancy...and I also couple it with crazy make-up (I can literally make myself look like a man, among other such things... :))... :D

Dave go to your local good will or even some fabric stores...

at good will you could very easily find a cheap old fauxx fur coat.

And at a fabric store sometimes they ahve knockoff stuff for real cheap or even ask them about their scrapes.
