I guess I can be open about it now, since Stefan told me I could put it all online. Stefan, the guy I was making that costume for, is the organiser of the Elf Fantasy Fair. So, check out what I made for him on the Dolle Griet website. (You can hardly miss that big-ass picture on the welcoming page)
For non-dutchies, the text with the picture says: "The costume of the organizer of the Elf Fantasy Fair, Stefan Struik, was also ordered with us. This complete costume is based on an 18th century military costume, and consists of kneelength-trousers, blouse, vest, coat, and sash."
The trousers were too wide at the waist, so I'll have to take them in 2 cm on each side. But he looks great. Horror-stories from last year's costume made by a woman who had an education in the costuming business included measuring a cm neckline on cloth in inches. Ouch, that's gotta hurt. *grins*
I'm quite ready for the Fair. We enjoyed dining with Malor, and I sold him one of the blue velvet-velours cloaks for Selarit (at a small discount, just for him). The banner is 100% done, with rings for ropes, and ropes for the rings, and all that. There's a minor glitch in some of the organizing, but I expect that to work itself out soon enough.
