 Cleaning some stuff out---who needs bows?






Friday, April 20, 2012

Happy Friday everyone!
I am busily working on the Madrigal Serving Wench Dresses today.  24 Corsets, shifts and skirts for the Baraboo High School Music Department.I really never thought I would make THAT many of the same thing in assorted sizes again. I like playing with the color combos though.
 Tapestry corsets in earthy tones are combined with linen skirts over an unbleached muslin shift.  The shift is not only coverage but can be washed between wearings, the rest will need to be dry cleaned.

So my sewing friends what is your favorite tool? I got a new pair of Ginger lightweight bent trimmers for this project..Yeah my new favorites...Heavy and SUPER SHARP. Have you gotten any new toys lately?

 I made this....I was feeling very uncreative.  This fabric spoke to me it said "I wanna be water" and the outfit put itself together.  The outfit is for Addy's Birthday party this weekend! I think I have a pink version with flowers stuck in my head that needs to get out....
