Costuming

A quick, unretouched photo of Ridley's "The Music Man" costume, finished except for an inch-and-a-half of lace that was inserted under the 1" tuck in the skirt. The armscye had three insertions—two sleeves plus the little eyelet cap over the sleeves. The back has a three-button closure, with little flower pearlized buttons.

Also included in the package were several bows out of the same fabric so Jaci can adorn Ridley's hair.

This has been a fun project. I'm so lucky to have a daughter-in-law who recognizes my talents and loves to challenge them. I grow as a sewist with every project Jaci dreams up!

Come see the finished product at Powers Auditorium on Friday and Saturday nights and Sunday afternoon.
