There are a bunch, although all the major sewing for costumes is done!
Galactic Police costume:
Sew border on badge, and attach pin backing
Find a good font for GP, and stencil onto badge
Construct a casing on the back of the gun holster so it can be worn on the belt
Put grommets in the bracers and find ribbon or cord to lace them with
Add a hook-and-eye to the skirt above the zipper
Tack down the lowed edges of the collar at the seams so it sits better
Possibly apply shoe polish to the stompy boots
Assemble the druid costume again - parts have wandered off and the belt-pouch went to the LARP last weekend
Find all unsigned Sharon Lee and Steve Miller books (also pray that the post office delivers Fledgeling Monday-Wednesday)
Charge the digital camera battery
Go through the con bag, remove old stuff, make sure it has useful things
Pack clothes and costumes!
Make Cornish Pasties
Wow!
Erm, totally doable by Thursday! This weekend I sewed the shirt/tunic, the belt, the holster, and the bracers. This meant I didn't get much cleaning or cooking done, though I did manage laundry from the LARP last weekend.
Yay, con!
