Costume artist and online publisher. Peacock Dress] New sample, and pink feathers. Jan 10th, 2014 at 11:15 AM. The new sample from India. Photos of the sample have arrived from Indian Embroiderer mkII, and it's near-as-dammit perfect! I love that not only do the two photos above represent a very, very good approximation of the Peacock Dress itself, but that they also. I HAVE SUCCESSFULLY CLONED MYSELF! Meanwhile, there is also progress on solving the mystery of the. When you look a lot more closely, it a...

Costume artist and online publisher. Peacock Dress] A mystery solved? Mar 11th, 2014 at 2:59 PM. Another embroidery sample arrived from India on Friday. As I compared it to the photos of the original dress in the museum, something began to dawn on me. Isn't it funny how you can look at a thing for years and assume it was done one way, but when you put it away for a while and get it out again, a lightbulb goes on and the answer suddenly becomes clear.

Costume artist and online publisher. Peacock Dress] Quote for the embroidery received! Jan 17th, 2014 at 11:22 AM. Earlier in the week, we reached a moment of truth that I’ve been anticipating ever since September 2012, when I realised that India was my best bet for realising my Peacock Dress dream. The quote for the embroidery, by far the most expensive and complex part of the project, arrived in my inbox. Ready for the real quote? 16 comments Leave a comment. Jan 17th, 2014 11:44 am (UTC).

Costume artist and online publisher. Oak Leaf Lodge] Week One. Nov 11th, 2013 at 3:23 PM. I've been in the woods a week, and it still feels not quite real. I never received the phone call saying that it's all a big mistake and I need to take all my crap back to Demi's. I think the awesome police have forgotten about me - or maybe it's just the crappy cellphone signal and they can't get through. :D. All text and images. Powered by LiveJournal.com.

[Peacock Dress] Renewal - Cathy Hay's Livejournal
http://peacockdress.livejournal.com/693523.html
Costume artist and online publisher. Jan 4th, 2014 at 7:02 PM. This post also appears on my shiny Wordpress blog. The reason that the Peacock Dress. Was always a joke, and the reason I pledged to go ahead and do it anyway if you sent me to Haiti, was because it was obviously a maddeningly complex project. It teased me from inside the glass case: "Betcha can't make me. It has lived up to its reputation: we are now approaching the three year mark since I first pledged to do this. The first priority is the ...
