For those of you who don’t know, I am completing my second year in costume design. I spent the  bulk of the summer sewing clothes for myself, and for my sister’s birthday, she requested  a cloak to go with her Renaissance Costume. Here it is:

It’s a fully lined, forest green wool cloak. It’s beautiful, if I do say so myself Up next, I am finally, finally going to make and finish that tam I’ve been wanting for the last year!

second verse – same as the first

Made another version of the simplicity dress, this time with a pretty teal linen. Photos at Disney Hall, downtown.

new dress

I finished! Simplicity 2591. I bought 4 yards of this seersucker – I joke that I’m going to make all my new clothes from it, just like the curtains from Sound of Music. I had so much left over I made a pair of shorts, and I still have enough to make a pencil skirt! haha

Don’t mind my crazy hair – or the mess in the background!
