Sew Many Seams: Into the Woods
http://sewmanyseams.blogspot.com/2013/12/into-woods.html
Thursday, December 26, 2013. Finally getting around to posting the last of the pictures from last summer season. Into the Woods by Sondheim was our final show. It was a challenge and quite a fun one to tackle. So far, it would have to be one of my favorite shows to be involved in. I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of it and overcoming every single challenge that we had to tackle. Little Red Riding Hood at the Baker's with his Wife. The Wolf and Little Red. Baker rescuing Little Red and Granny.

Sew Many Seams: March 2013

Tuesday, March 26, 2013. Tuesday Tutorial Sweater leggings. So I have always liked leg warmers. Thankfully for me, they are coming back into fashion now and I no longer look like an outdated weirdo who doesn’t keep up with the times. Oh wait, that's is how I will always dress. Anyhow, I knit myself a pair and love them. But I wanted more and didn’t want to take the time required for knitting them from scratch. I cut off the bottom ribbing and the sleeves of the sweater. Have fun cutting up all the old sw...

Second Hand News: September 2011

An exploration of the joy of vintage. Monday, September 19, 2011. Finds on the Fly: September 19, 2011. I've done it again. I've accumulated an impossibly large set of things to blog about, and well, we shall just have to muddle through as best we can. In the immortal words of Bette Davis, "Fasten your seat-belts. We're in for a bumpy ride.". I just adore the fanned leather (or is it satin? Design across the toes, and the shoes sport a healthy height to their stilletto heels too! Delight me in their prac...

http://sewmanyseams.blogspot.com/2013/11/fools.html
Saturday, November 23, 2013. So I had meant to post these a lot quicker. But due to family illness and other life issues it didn't happen obviously. The second show of the 2013 season was Fools by Neil Simon. Mishkin, Yechna and Slovitch. The show is about the small village of Kulyenchikov. Due to an ancient curse the entire village is stupid and unable to feel emotion. Schoolmaster Leon has come to town as tutor to the Doctor Zubritsky's young daughter Sophia Zubritsky. Leon and Count Gregor. Leon convi...

Sew Many Seams: December 2013
http://sewmanyseams.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 26, 2013. The Set designer gave me pictures of what he he was kind of envisioning and all the paint, so I would know what colors he was wishing so stay with. So with a projector, some volunteers, paint and brushes and no clue where to start I dove in. Eight hours later, this is what the back wall looked like. A more cleared away picture. Not bad for a costumer. If you hadn't guessed, they were going The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe. With lights and children. I did not want to purch...

Sew Many Seams: October 2012

Tuesday, October 9, 2012. Tuesday Tutorial Up-cycled t-shirts. So what do you do on a cold rainy day? Pull out the bag of way too big old t-shirts and start up-cycling! I used a Men's Medium t-shirt and made it into a short sleeve shrug/jacket thing. Here is the basic layout on how I cut the t-shirt out. The strips that I cut off of the bottom I sewed together and they became the ruffled edging all around. Then on the sleeves I did a double tulip sleeve. My tulip sleeve tutorial can be found here.

Wednesday, September 19, 2012. The trees have Awakened! Time for a sneak peak! Because that is all the time I have had for pictures, nothing real yet.). I have completed my costume and parts of my brothers ent costumes as well. That which I am not making for them they are making themselves.

I love it all so much!

An exploration of the joy of vintage. Sunday, April 7, 2013. Finds on The Fly: April 7, 2013. I was lucky enough this week to wander into Couture Allure Vintage Fashion. And take a look around at the amazing merchandise that they've acquired since last I was there. I could practically write a blog on this store's stock alone, but I've restrained myself to two particularly fine pieces. The first is a particularly fine 50's Jacket Dress. Freshly dry cleaned and ready to wear. First My favorite of her curre...
