New toys

This is something I have been looking at for a while, it's a Go pro hero 2 camera.

I will have to practice a bit with it, also I will need to learn how to do some simple editing. Hopefully I can do some fun and odd videos maybe of something I have made or I am making.

Stay tuned ;)

We hope we can can.....

I am currently working with a large amount of organza, to make a very big but hopefully light skirt to well Can Can with.

My machine was going great until the belt broke, I am now on my domestic working with half the speed and half the space. Not really ideal but until the service man can come out I will go forth like that.

 

 I try to do it evenly and without pleats, but really if I wanted it to be perfect I should have box pleated it. That is how the ones at the moulin rouge are done.

its a pretty hot job too because you end up having all of that polyester organza on your lap 

as you can see I pin it first

And then sew it on

I am in the middle of doing the 7th row now, and luckily they are getting smaller each row. but there is 10 rows all up and 4 colours (blue, white, red and black) 

After this is done I have to finish the top layer add a placket and waistband, maybe some sparkles then I am done.

Sounds easy doesn't it, it is but it's just time consuming.

More when I get further....

cheerio

Bar styled modelled

So it finally got finished and I had the dress on the runway.

It was great to have my Friend Tamara model it,

She was amazing and people in the crowd cheered when she walked past.

Here it is sitting in the exhibition

 

And here it is on the catwalk, I am proud as punch :)

Look at the smile its awesome, she seemed like the only one smiling.

 

So glad I had a sexy curvy model, well there we are all done.

thank you for watching the making of bar styled,

and hopefully you have enjoyed seeing this come together.

until next time ;)
