Yet they were okay with my headwrap sleeves hanging down my back (totally forgot to tuck them in) - just asked that I shorten them. sigh.

The piper boots are currently labelled in a scary red "last remaining stock / end of line", which I'm assuming means they're stopping production on them? I've been holding off buying a pair for literally a year now and am wondering if I'll hate myself for not going for it while they're still available. :/

Po-Zu will lunch a new brand of their products with the license "Star Wars". It's seems like they sell the remaining stock of their actual boots, but will continue to make Rey's with a different logo on it. So don't worry, it will still be available (but maybe a bit more expensive)
You can purchased the boots now with 25% discount code - MERRYSOLES25 until the 31st december.

I posted this a while back but I thought I'd post it again in case anyone is making a bracer. This is the hidden seam method I used to make my daughter's bracer/cuff.

I used that pattern and it worked like a charm! Thank you for reposting it!
I have a question for any fellow Rebel Legion Rey's out there: Rey has three different weapons that can be carried with her Jakku costume (light saber, staff and blaster): when I submitted, I did not have any of these but have now acquired the blaster and light saber. My question is: Do I re-submit my entire costume or just submit pictures of the items themselves?

if your rey is approved, you are set. you don't need to re-submit unless you've significantly changed the costume to a different version. Adding or subtracting props like the ones you've mentioned won't invalidate your costume's eligibility...particularly if you didn't submit with them.
For example, I didn't have my backpack completed when i submitted, but have it now and wear it to troops all of the time.

Does any one plan on attending Star War Celebration in Orlando 2017?

I was a long-time lurker on this thread, slowly making my first costume, starting on it in July and quietly learning from all of you, and because of the wisdom and experience in this thread, I'm proud to say I created my first RL-approved costume!! Thank you so much to everyone for their help and tips, especially Kristen, who I remember just sponging up a ton of invaluable information from.
I'm now currently well underway on my Resistance Rey, so after taking so much from this thread, I'm hoping to give back on the Resistance Rey thread, showing my build on that thread as I go and hopefully helping others as they have helped me.
And yes @MatrixSpoon and @Redwillow, I'm also going to Celebration with (hopefully) both costumes! I'm only there Friday and Saturday though. Are we all considering a big Rey group photo?

My headwrap is done!
Pics to come, but I've finished the headwrap and one of the gloves.
So far I have the tunic, headwrap, bracer and one glove completely done minus weathering. And lets not forget the wrap is dyed and I just need to dye the arm wraps. I'm thinking light taupe like the shirt, but Redwillow claims taupe and pearl grey, so I'm not sure. All I know is that I only have two bandages!
I finally feel like I can say that I'm getting close...
