Actually right now my dummy is wearing a bonnet, I've been experimenting with trims as it has been untrimmed for too long and I found some flowers I can use last weekend http://www.flickr.com/photos/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/2899543225/ I think I need to buy a Styrofoam head to model hats on. I'm also working on a fitted English gown from the Tudor Tailor to add to my SCA group's loaner garb as a replacement for an unforgivably ugly crushed velvet 'coat like' dress that I removed, not even the trim was worth salvaging, I'm still debating whether to put the original in the bin or donate it to charity and hope that somebody might use it for a costume party.

It's that time of year: holiday parties, winter balls, theater season, company dinners, Diskens Fair, New Years Eve, cocktail parties,12th Night. You might even be planning a sojourn to a balmy tropical locale. Whatever the reason, h-costumers are probably making something. So, what's your dressmaker's dummy wearing today? --cin Cynthia Barnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] PS. It's ok to run into the sewing room, toss something marvelous on the dummy and *then* tell us about it. It's also ok to tell what's on your design sketchbook, worktable, at the sewing machine or in the embroidery hoop. _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
