I WANNA BE A PRODUCER!





Pretty gold showgirl and me!
















So many old lady costumes! They were hilarious.
Below is Ulla the Black Eagle... And more old ladies with walkers. Also the sausage follie girl and Valkyrie follie girl. I also made the pigeons in the coop, equipped with a movable wings depicting nazi insignia.


















Miracle Worker

Turn of the century attire, faux silk jacket with pin striped layered skirt and matching hat with plume.
For Hellen Keller's Mother in the Miracle Worker.

All Hollows Eve


For Halloween this year I decided to go blonde.











Here is the Mad Hatter pouring tea on my brother, the Caterpillar. He's got eight arms.










Here is the Mad Hatter and Alice.











This hat was my favorite part. The hair is made of Mohair fur scraps.











We also had a white rabbit.
I never knew falling down the rabbit hole would be such hard work. The week before Halloween, I did not sleep!


Next year I'll be Mary Poppins.
