Costumes-costumes-costumes
It seems I have been building costumes all my life. That is what I did for many years--I designed and made costumes for dance programs and plays up until my husband retired and wanted to travel where ever a motor home would take us. So-we did. I retired also, found a place for the sewing machine and sewing supplies in the motor home and we were off with the dog to travel this great country of ours. My hands were never idle. The hubby drove and I sewed. I mostly sewed holiday items or little things that I gave as gifts to friends and family we visited on the way. When we finally returned home after many years of the R V life--I still needed somethings to keep me busy. I found out about ETSY and decided I would make Children's costumes. Nine years later I am still having fun- still sitting at the sewing machine and deciding where this piece of lace will go, or do I want to use ribbons--how do I want to close this garment--matching buttons, unmatched buttons, ties or frogs?
I always try to design with the kids in mind and what would be the easiest way for them to enjoy their costumes.
Thank you for all of your support and ideas. I really do appreciate it.
