Herrow,


Soooo I FINALLY finished this shirt!! I have been working on it for soo long and here it is!! I took an old shirt that didn't fit me anymore and redid it a little. I turned it into a halter shirt!! I cut off the sleeves and put elastic in the back and a piece of an old shirt in the back for the tie. Phew..im done!!

Vests AWAY!!





Hey!!



Arrrrr en't you glad its summer? hehe yes I had to make that joke!! :P So as you may know I have been volunteering/interning at the Shakespheare Theater. As well as working on the projects and things to do around the Costume Shop, I started this project. Basically I'm making a pirate!!! and this is the vest that he is going to wear. I took a basic pattern of an already made pirate vest redesigned it based on what I wanted and the measurements of my pirate. So that I made it my own!! This little vest actually took WAY longer than what I thought. It's little so you think it would be easier..WRONG!!! It was actually a lot harder because some of it is too little to do by machine so you have to do by hand. Sorry the pictures are a little blurry but if you can see theres also interfacing in the vest aka inside is black and outside is blue to put it bluntly :P For a regular vest you would probably do it by machine and it wouldn't be a problem but because this was my creation then it had to keep making it and sewing a bunch of it by hand. phew so it took longer but its FINALLY done!! Sorry I ended up writing WAY more then I thought..haha hope I didn't bore you too much!!
