The Grecian Urns practicing
Denise Wheeler supplied all the costumes. I hemmed, ironed (ugh) and adjusted for size. Harold's hat is mine, Winthrop's costume is mine, he had argyle socks that you can't see... The Grecian urns were the night gowns we used in Pirates of Penzance last year. I did make the two black skirts for the barbershop. I supplied some of the props too.
Thank -you Uncle Chris for the photos!

Blue M and M, with white gloves, is a onsie ( that means one size fits most...)

Haunted House Life Jackets

Finished 5 life jackets for the local haunted house. They are doing Titanic this year.
Bruce cut out the foam and I sewed like the wind. The original life jackets were made with cork.

Star Trek uniform


Found a Star Trek uniform yesterday at a Good will in Walla Walla. It came with an original pin too! Didn't they say not to wear a red uniform as they were the ones that died in the film? hmmm size small

This lovely black taffeta ensemble would make a delightful witch costume. The buttons are rhinestone with a  high neck and gathered sleeves. size 6

Generous Donation

   Just picked up a van load and back seat stuffed with costumes from Imbler high School. They are a small school and do not have a drama department. The students choose to do track in the spring and there are not enough students to do a production.
   I will give the green army uniforms to Elgin Opera House for 'White Christmas'. I gave about 6 boxen, (boxes, plural of ox) to People Helping People of old sweat shirts, big flower dresses, jackets, etc. I will give the water damaged and moth eaten clothing to Jeri Mackley for the Haunted House.
   Any costumes with 2 or more, like the black/white cheerleader tops, matching blue gingham dresses and black metallic alien mini skirts & mini collars to LHS.
   Some of the costumes need repairs and they all need a wash. They have been sitting in the costume closet unused for several years. I am thankful for them and delighted to add them to our collections! There are several dresses we can use for 'White Christmas', some skirts for Fiddler and some dresses for upcoming LHS productions.
