Children's Clothes

I've decided to send a few items to a Boutique Sale my friend is running in WA. Here is the first piece. I will be working on a few other items in between the other things I have going on this month.

It's my middle daughter's birthday (the brunette in the pictures) and Harvest Festival at my children's school and I'm PTSO President. It's our biggest event of the year. I have their Halloween costumes nearly done, only a few details are missing. My oldest is going to be the teal/green Musketeer and my youngest is going to be a duck. My middle daughter picked a costume I couldn't find fabric for so she got a store bought costume this year.

OOTI or What I did on My Summer Vacation

Alrighty! Here it is! Some pictures of what I have been up to since I got back from my vacation to Washington in June, what I've been mentioning in facebook status updates and the project my cute kiddos have been living without a kitchen table for (they really didn't mind).

The costumes were designed by Steve Huntsman (also the director).

The constuction was a collaboration between Sandra Huntsman and myself. I did the most on Asaka and the least on Armand but I sewed (even just a tiny bit) on every single costume. :) All of the distressing was done by Steve and Sandra.

I had a lot of fun with this project and as an added bonus because they are peasants and the costumes were being distressed I didn't have to hem anything!

The costumes can be seen live at Spring Mountain Ranch Wed - Sat until Aug 29th.

Snow White

The Snow White I made for myself was apparently popular

and I received and order for one just like it.

It is headed to New Jersey.

I start work for a community theater production of Once On This Island on Tuesday and my ship dates will be more spread out for the rest of the summer.
