I’ve been getting some really wiggy measurements lately. Sometimes I catch them but sometimes not. I.e. a whole tutu made to the wrong measurements. I got this tape measure in a package of sewing goodies from Amazon yesterday. Just random stuff thrown in with my order. It is wildly wrong. Please measure like a piece of paper 8.5X11 to make sure your tape measure is right before you send measurement!!!!

The amazing Stella in her piece Bird of Paradise. She wanted something very simple with a Bird of Paradise somehow incorporated into the costume. I called Adam at to see if they had something that would work. They had one stem left over from another order and it was the perfect size. We rearranged the flower to fit the costume and it turned out to be just perfect.

A new rental, Henrietta, from Raymonda. She is a total flirt and if you don’t know the variation it is very fun with lots of character and jumps. Flying of to CA in a couple of weeks for her debut appearance!
