Final Fantasy X-2: Yuna 06

Costume designer for Final Fantasy X-2, Tsukamoto Tetsu states that the radical design changes for Yuna from Final Fantasy X to Final Fantasy X-2 reflect a huge cultural change. Because Yuna, Rikku, and Paine now lives in a more care-free world, the designers wanted them to be able to dress up. Scriptwriter Nojima Kazushige added that Yuna's new outfit was a "natural reaction to the heavy stuff she wore in FFX".

Beautiful cosplay! I love how the cosplayer looks as if she has a secret that she's not about to tell. Thanks again to Linda for her contributions!

Pop-Up Puppets

I just made some pop-up puppets with the kids this morning.  We had a great time picking out the fabrics and drilling holes for the dowel sticks.  When we were done, Jack and Tess were pretty surprised at how they came to life.  Below you can see a quick video.  (Including another one of my old songs.)
