Okay...basically all I have is fabric, whatever thread is in my crappy sewing supply box (my mom picked something up at a rummage sale so it's not that great or supplied)....a sketches or what I want. Would really like the cloak and pants made right away. have nothing to keep either one...not all sure what would be best. Ideas? And how much? Where to purchase for best bang for buck?

I have no idea what you are asking here? Are you trying to ask where to get patterns??

I'm asking what else I would need to get and where's the best place to get it at the lowest price. We've really got JoAnn Fabrics and Walmart...with not much of a craft section...here in Freeport.
Oh yeah, and I have that skirt that needs to be taken in or something done to it so it doesn't fall down during practice.
Thinking a drawstring might maybe work better than elastic. Kept pulling my black skirt down today...as well as other times when I've fought cause I kind of step on it sometimes when I'm legged. And the stretchy stuff (assuming it's also elastic) on my black skirt that I always wear is starting to get a little stretched out because of that. Basically, curious as to what's the best way to go about that...making sure things stay on and won't to be adjust between every battle.

I have multiple pants patterns but I think they are too big for you (scrups, sleepwear pants) I use sleepwear pants pattern to make good pants but they do not have the panel in the crotch. Simplicity makes good patterns and I dont think they are to expensive.
For the skirt, If there is a tube which the elastic was put through then you can run your drawstring right through that. Also you could just run a piece of fabric on the back side of the elastic creating a tube for the drawstring.

Not sure if I'll be making this one. The 5th isn't really a good day for me, just in general, and with already going to Rockford a few times this week and gas prices and the stupid tire being stupid again...yeah. Still need to get my pants made though, so.....
