pooh 2013

Always a fun production!!  Rose of Athens revisited Winnie the Pooh for the holidays in 2013 with their performance of “A Holiday Tail”.  Some of the previous costumes were still around, with some minor repairs and alterations needed, but I still had to make Tigger, Rabbit, and a few missing heads 🙂  Since I had patterned out the costumes before, and had an intern for this show, it was pretty easy.  The family and I even helped make a few of the 700 snowflakes that adorned the set!

That’s me and my littlest on the front row, right.  The girls were more than willing to attend dress rehearsals and fittings with me for this show 🙂  Here is a mini piglet version I made for my now 9 year old back when I did Pooh the first time around…

My Rapunzel customer had a special request for the winter of 2013.  She was attending Disney on Ice in costume and needed a special jacket or cape to wear.  We came up with a gorgeous design, found the perfect matching velveteen/velour, lined it with purple and a special lace trim.  It ties at the neck with a velvet ribbon and has a huge hood.  It ended up being super thick and warm and a great accessory for the Rapunzel Dress.
