Behind the scenes again!

[labricoleuse]

Last night was photo call, and the show opens Saturday here at work. We're generally busy so i've not got much time for a long post on it yet (i'll make one when i have the photo CD in-hand). I did go around and take some "behind the scenes" photographs of some of the period-pattern half-form projects and some hats in-progress to share. According to the cliche, this is at least as good as me writing several thousand words... :)

Here's a hat i began making this summer--feathers and fabric are vintage, hatbody is new.


Finished hat i illustrated blocking in a previous post

I so live for those half form projects! Too cool!

Your hats are amazing, of course! Feel free to send them to me when you are done!

Yay, your parasols are on the theatre banners!! See? Everyone loves a parasol!
