Hullo everyone, and thanks to dreamflower02 for starting this community! What a great idea. :)

My name is Kel, and I've made several LotR costumes, which can be seen at the following links:

Merry's party outfit from FOTR

Merry's Fellowship outfit

Merry's Rohan armour

My Merry-inspired hobbit lass costume, which doesn't have its own page yet, but can be seen in the photo here.

Why, yes, I DO like Merry! :)

I've also made several LOTR teddy bears, including Frodo Bear and Merry Bear!

My current LOTR craft project is knitting up a pair of hobbit socks to use while in costume. They are coming along slowly, but surely!

WOW! The costumes are beautiful and they don't look 'cheesy.' I've drooled over some LotRs costumes on some sites, but they so obviously are made from cheap material and substandard sewing. These are outstanding. I was especially impressed by Frodo's jacket, knowing how hard it is to sew a good jacket. I repeat - WOW!

(And loved 'Pippin's' grin. Very Pippinish!)
