Natsume Abe Morning Musume -- "Morning Coffee" RECCA-con 2002 nacchi! she is so cute! and the short baby-faced looking one during Morning Coffee! i'm so glad i got to be part of this group! ^^; i say that every time i do a group project! but i'm so thankful everytime i'm asked! *happy* i'm also so happy i got to be nacchi also! since i'm the shortest member of USA Musume i wouldn't usually be able to choose nacchi, since she's a medium-height person in the newer songs... but in Morning Coffee, she's the shorty! XD nacchi is so cute and has the eternal baby face! i thought it was funny when my wushu friends asked me how old the pictures were since they thought they were really old! not just two months! construction time! there isn't much construction actually to this costume. the shirts were bought since we were running out of time, and we found them for cheap online! my boots were found by annie! yay annie! we were searching forever for boots! @_@ the only thing for us that was actually made were the skirts. we took a simple pattern and altered it to be what we saw on the live performance video clip we all had. each of them are slightly difference, since we all were confused to what was going on. and ou! >_< that red plaid was a pain to work with! fraying everywhere! i think everyone's mothers were complaining about what a mess it made! thank goodness for a serger! but, in the end, they all look really good! the difference between my costume and the other girls from MC were that nacchi has short hair, (bought the wig... yep! it's a wig!) and nacchi wears a ring and has _one_ earring! yup, just one. both the earring and ring were purchased at a Claire's ! yay for cheapness *_* that's constuction! not much of it, right? hee hee, pictures were sometimes a pain, but they all came out wonderful! having RECCA-con at a college, and dressing up as schoolgirls worked out perfectly! *hugs the UM girls* O-HA! =D
