It's the sketching of the costumes, sourcing of all the fabrics, designing and engineering the costumes, drafting patterns and then cutting out the pattern pieces in fabric that takes all the time...<br />I'm really getting into it all though and have set a goal to have all of the costumes that I am directly responsible for completed by the end of July! Well that's the goal anyway!<br /><br />No doubt there will be regular progress reports, updates and pictures here at the Palais! Even the Empress is getting out her sewing kit for this one!Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11021504621181130629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2459059251716959307.post-47725153677353167852012-03-27T10:56:18.798+11:002012-03-27T10:56:18.798+11:00My Dear Mitzi

Fortunately not all the costumes need to be made from scratch, Particularly the Sepia scenes on the farm and the bulk of the Munchkins are already completed from past productions...
