Blog I must...

Hello dear ones... someday I will have some readers! So I may as well practice.

I am hopefully attending Cicada Club on Halloween! I have my tickets, but need o come up with a bit of cash for the trip. So I will be posting some Etsy items next week.

For the Cicada, I plan to make a fabulous Seahorse costume. Based on an aqua bias cut silk evening gown, I have oodles of matching velvet and thought it could be a cape in sections, with the little finny wings on the back, and a hat  shaped like the seahorse's head.  The dress needs a bit of help anyway, so I can add a train shaped like the tail, stuffed for shape and held up with a loop on the wrist. I will probably not be able to pull it off in time, but maybe.

Sketches to come soon...
