Ballet tutu...stretch duo tutus

I made these earlier in the year for two girls in Perth for a classical duo.

Ballet tiaras

I have made quite a few tiaras lately, some to go with tutus and some just to try some new designs. Here are some photos, kindly modeled by Annie Jones, any with white wire showing will be painted to match their owner's hair colour.

Sewing pattern for tutus

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!!

I still have spaces available for the two day tutu course on 7/8 January at my studio in Woodend, central Victoria.

I also have sewing patterns for classical ballet tutus in girls and Ladies sizes, and instructions.

Wonderful results fromTutu making course

I have just spent two days with four lovely women from Ballarat and I am truly amazed at how much they accomplished. They all went home with made, tacked and partly decorated tutus and headdresses, I had a great time and hope they did too. They have promised me photos of the tutus when they are totally finished.
Well done to Beth, Michelle, Justine and Bri. Their daughters and students are very lucky.
