It’s that time again — sale! I’ve got some new fabrics (silk taffeta, silk faille, silk brocatelle, vintage cotton border print anyone?) and trims available. Mummy’s trying to raise $$ to afford Costume College and court dress supplies, so I’m liberating some things from the stash.
San Francisco Bay Area people: you should know about a NEW event coming up May 2-3 in Vallejo! Carnevale Fantastico is a brand new Renaissance faire, but it’s not just any Renaissance faire. It’s specifically an ITALIAN event, with performers, theater, food, and more that will be more than your usual “renfaire”! Bella Donna Historical Performers will be performing, and I’m really excited about it!
Would you believe it, I sewed something! It was crazy around here! The Greater Bay Area Costumers Guild held a Game of Thrones event at Castello di Amorosa, a winery in the Napa valley. Now, I like Game of Thrones — I watch the show religiously, although I can tell that the books would drive me crazy. And I like the costumes, although I don’t love them. But when the event was announced and so many of my friends wanted to go, I decided to go too!
Speaking of poverty, I’m also selling a few rare costume books that I don’t crack as often as I should on Amazon.com:
Did you know I have an Etsy store? It’s true! Here are a few highlights of things I’m selling there. (This post brought to you by poverty!)
