I do have my gown done....well, for the most part. Needless to say, if you've every undertaken a project like this, you know that it's never REALLY done. I'm hoping to have pics uploaded this weekend after rehearsal so you all can see what it looks like on. I still have to make a hat and I'm debating on whether or not I want to put on a wire whisk ruff. It would be real cool and would really set me off as 'the main dame'! LOL! Well, after the queen that is....
Rehearsals have been going great. I've gotten a lot of compliments on my gown and on the one I made for another gal ( I want to upload those pics too). I love my role and the 'attitude' I have. Kind of like me! We have less than three weeks to opening day and I'm nervous and excited! Nervous because I have so much to finish before then and excited because I really get to play!
On the lines of what needs to be finished...
One jester shirt and pants. The shirt is almost complete and should be by tomorrow. It's going to look great on him! It's a bright yellow and orange and will go very well with the collar, wrist cuffs, ankle cuffs, waistband and hat that I've already made for him. The pants are going to be a cinch to make. Simple he said. I can do simple.
One pair of faun pants. These are going to be a dark brown fur that I've already cut out. The trick will be putting in the butt cheeks (yes, they are NOT real) and figuring out a way to secure the legs. The faun is going to be on digi-stilts so it's going to be tricky...
One bodice that is reversable. This is almost complete as I'm mentoring the gal who is doing it and it is for her. However, with time running out, I may just pick it up and get it finished.
One doublet. This goes with the outfit for the gal who has the other gown. It will compliment the gown and be an additional thing she can wear should she want the additional.
Hem up the cape. Yes, I still haven't finished that. That won't take long...but it's still something that needs to be finished.
Hat...mine. Not an easy undertaking, but should be able to have it finished by opening day. This will be the last thing I do. I always seem to put me off..oh well. Here's a pic of what I really want to do hat wise.
