My goodness how time flies. It has been September since my last post. This is not what I intended and unfortunately I have not kept the promise to post more often.

What has happened since September? Livin' Fat and the Christmas Production took up most of the costuming hours with some foundation work being developed  on two other projects.  Finding outfits for the 1970's was an adventure with a "minimal" budget and only a smidgen of time. The Christmas Production always takes on new life and this year Mary, the mother of Jesus had 5 different looks. Joseph had at least three.

There is never a dull moment in the life of a  Costumer. In Atlanta, it is quite expected that you do all of the work alone.That means; the meetings, the shopping, the fittings, the sketching, the sewing, the maintaining, the cleaning and repairing, dressing, set up and break down. I have even been asked to bring a team when I am doing jobs for free. Thoughts on this anyone?? Please share.

This craft and artistry that I bring to the table is something hat has been developed over years of study and practice. My costumes are to be done well. Allow me the necessary resources: access, space, money and time. The results will be unforgettable. I can promise you that.
