{Costume Design: Belle’s Ballgown from Beauty and the Beast}

December 20, 2019 by kelerr

NOTE: This is a repost from two years ago.  Prepping for the holidays have me busily running around trying to get everything done before the celebrations begin (including an early one this weekend!).  With Frozen Jr. getting closer and closer, I thought it would be fun to look back at Beauty and the Beast. This will be the first in my series on my costumes for Beauty and the Beast.  I’ve been holding off on posting any progress photos for […]

{Out and About: Love Actually, the Musical Parody}

December 17, 2019 by kelerr

Last week I mentioned that a lot of what I end up doing comes my way through Facebook. I randomly see ads for events and thankfully have a friend who will tag along with me most of the time. Thus, my friend Sarah and I found ourselves at a Love Actually musical parody last Saturday. We trekked ourselves into the city despite the rainy weather, and found ourselves at the Jerry Orbach theater. These musical parodies are often held in […]

{Out and About: Costume Talk with Donna Zakowska}

December 13, 2019 by kelerr

Facebook can be a wonderful thing sometimes, especially when it helps me find events I wouldn’t otherwise know about. So when the opportunity for a free talk with Donna Zakowska, the costume designer for The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, came up I jumped on it! In a word, the event was amazing. I went straight from work in the hopes of getting a good seat and I ended up in the fourth row! Sadly there were no pictures or videos allowed […]

{The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Season Three: My Favorite Looks }

December 10, 2019 by kelerr

Well, I’m already suffering from post-Mrs. Maisel season three depression. I plowed through it on Saturday and now have no more new episodes until season four graces Amazon. I will miss the clothes the most, but as I’ll be spending the next couple of months making copies of all of Midge’s costumes from this season, I should get through this dry period okay! These posts are primarily about the costumes, but I may give away a plot point or two […]

{November Sewing Update}

December 6, 2019 by kelerr

I cannot tell you how much less pressure I feel doing these posts as “sewing updates” rather than makes posts. I don’t feel like I have to rush to get something done to show it off, and the truth is, other things that need to get done would suffer for that. Updates means I can show off works in progress, which makes it so much easier! As with last month, most of this month has been utterly and completely focused […]

{What I Read: November 2019}

December 3, 2019 by kelerr

Despite having a very busy month, I managed to squeeze in a number of books thanks to a sick day and Thanksgiving break. Let’s get right into it shall we? The Family Upstairs, by Lisa Jewell was SO GOOD. I’ve read a few of Jewells books before and liked them, but none so much as this one. It was a creepy psychological thriller with three narrators who alternated chapters. They are connected to each other, that much is obvious going […]
