Once Upon A Mattress - black

I am still busy crafting costumes for the upcoming play in Spokane.  This is actually avoidance behavior for me, as there are about 10 things that I really NEED to get done, but it's way more fun to sew.  I spent a whole $7 on this one, buying ribbon and the chain at the bodice front.  So far, I've made 4 gowns, all with cast-off prom dresses and bits and pieces I had stashed away.  I love making something from nothing. It appeals to my tight- wad nature.  I'm a little worried that black may be to somber for a musical comedy, but I didn't want to waste the dress.  Now, I only have one prom dress left to remodel.  It' s purple... Stay tuned!
