I am making toiles of pantomime costumes for musketeers, using two patterns, for children, and adults. There are 5 different sizes of musketeers, from 8 ys old through to adult, so I am tracing and adapting the patterns as needed.
The shoulder epaulettes were very soft and floppy, therefore I have tested reinforcing the right one with pelmet vilene.
I need to incorporate the musketeer symbol onto the costumes, probably with appliqué, but for these toiles, I am stencilling using freezer paper stencils and fabric paint.
It's that time of year. I spent Monday night painting Widow Twanky`s roof

ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a lot of work - but also quite a lot of fun! Hope that it's appreciated! xx
ReplyDeleteI love that, thanks to you, I now know what a 'toile' is (happy memories of Dior)....could come in useful for crosswords!
