Costume Photo Shoot

We did a photo shoot with some friends and these are the results. Do you know any of these people? Jeri Mackley took the pictures and I supplied the costumes and our friends and fam supplied the personalities. Photos by Jeri Mackley

Here are some of the John Wayne type shirts I have been making for the Elgin Opera House. The darker color shirts look the best. I liked the brick red. The colors are light blue, yella, navy blue, purple, green and pink. John Wayne wore pink and no one messed with him.

I had to add length to the bottom of the shirt so hairy belly buttons wouldn't show and then I had to add length to the arms so when the boys do lifts the shirts will be long enough. I put Velcro on the wrist bands and most of the buttons on the bib fronts are sewn in place.

Now you know our clothing short cuts.

I have to finish sewing the pink shirt, and a vest and then I will be finished. ta dah!
