Literal last minute, sticks and rocks throw together for one of my kids!
30 minute project. I don't make Halloween costumes for my kids much anymore but this was a fun distraction from 2 shows and a commission I'm finishing up on.

Something a little dark but fashionable completed today.

I'm a little behind on this commission because of the several days without power but I'm thankful to be back at it.

Keep our WNC folks in your thoughts as they continue to figure out their next steps day by day. North Carolina Strong

Another vintage inspired dress on the mannequin today. It needs some finishing details but I'm liking how it's turning out. Cutting the next one now. Hopefully I can get another finished today.

A couple vintage dresses made. Using actual vintage patterns. A few finishes and these two should be stage worthy.

9 year old Zero getting a spa day before his trip to DragonCon again. This is a puppet I made 9 years ago for a sweet friend. She said Zero has been seen and adored by 10s of thousands of folks along with her Sally costume I created. He's been in several parades and countless photos. He's held up so well and she has taken impeccable care of him. He just needed a little refresh and a restringing. Last three photos are when he was created and the final photo is Zero and the Sally costume I made as well at Dragon Con 2016 parade. It's great to have cool friends that commission me to make fun things!

And that's a wrap! With the wig and on an actor it looks great.

Finishing up on a commission over the next couple days. I've got a quick change dress to add details to, a rework of a dress that just didn't fit properly and 10 pairs of pants that need elastic at the knees. Here's the finished pieces so far.
These will not be in my stock... they will be going to a high school nearby for their spring musical and hopefully get used for many shows in the future. They were fun and colorful to make.
