Costumes! Part 2

This is "Sea Cruise" and holy hell this was the hardest thing I've ever done! I made the skirts from scratch and found out that stretch sequin is so not my BFF. Brian and I stayed up all night the night before the competition to get them finished. Seriously. He was sewing ruffles on my serger while I was putting together the skirts. It was insanity, but worth it in the end. I think they came out really well! Had all of the fabric come in sooner I would have like to have the Sequins go all the way around the skirts and tops, but time didn't allow it. I also wanted to add ruffles on the booties of their bloomers, but that didn't work out either. Oh, well. Live and Learn... Order supplies early!
