Re: Darth Aloha's ROTJ Build

Each person's robes will probably be a little differently done as there isn't a real pattern for the ROTJ robe. I can tell you how mine was done. On mine the side and top of the outer robe layers are sewn together. On the bottom, each of the two pieces is blind stitch hemmed. They are not sewn toge...

Re: Darth Aloha's ROTJ Build

Thanks Stephen. I don't mean to sound like a broken record asking the same question over and over and over again but when you say liner and outer robe are sewn together can you be more specific? Are they sewn along the bottom hem? If so what does that look like? How is it sewn? I have seen contracto...

Re: Darth Aloha's ROTJ Build

Below you can see my McCalls 2810 front and front/side patterns on top of 45" fabric. I don't see how there can be no seams on the front panel.

Help?

Re: Darth Aloha's ROTJ Build

Awesome. So there is supposed to be extra fabric to create an overlap. Those images are very helpful. I'm dying to make the CRL more specific in this regard. And from Stephen's cryptically inscrutable reply I'm guessing the liner is somehow hemmed/sewn into the outer robe. I'm still lost as to how. ...

Re: Darth Aloha's ROTJ Build

The slit is covered with overlapping parts. The lining is all around the outer robe. Hi. Thanks. I'm not sure I'm making my questions clear enough. I will try again and keep asking. Here is the same question posed a few ways just in case: What does overlapping parts mean? How do you overlap a slit ...

Re: Darth Aloha's ROTJ Build

Moved. Thanks! Ok... a few questions... Is there any other opening on the ROTJ outer robe other than the right arm hole? Is the right arm hole a slit that goes all the way up or is it actually a hole? The CRL says this about the arm hole "This opening is obscured by the overlapping edges of th...

Re: Darth Aloha's ROTJ Build

Hi... I might as well make this a build thread.... would someone be kind enough to move it somewhere more appropriate?

Thanks,

Re: Filling in the DP copyright

I heard of some used hot glue to fill it.
That's interesting. Can you sand hot glue?

I'll try sanding it down but I think I'd like to find some sort of sandbale flexible goop.

Thanks :)
