Fall, Holidays and Now

I realize I've been MIA for months now and thought I'd show you what I've been up to.  It would be cool to say I've been traveling the world, but my world has been in my studio.  Not making handbags, bow-ties or accessories though. I've been helping design and then make costumes.
For the past few months I've had the opportunity to work with some amazing dancers and choreographers designing and making their costumes for this years company.  It's been such a great experience tying in two of my greatest passions, dance and sewing.  I've made all of some costumes and pieces and parts of others.  So here is what I've been up to....

Lyrical Senior Dance. I got to make every part of these costumes.

Jr Lyrical. I was able to make each dress and sash.

I loved how different these where in a sea of glitter and bling.

This solo costume I simple made a skirt/short that would complement the top.

Matador inspired costume. Check out those shoulder pads I made.

Small group lyrical. French Inspired.

Here's all the seniors.  In such a beautifully printed skirt.  They really draped well and look so good on stage.

And a few more pictures from the studio.
