 no i am not doing this all by myself!

I have many helpers, kind hearted souls that have lent their fingers and time

to creating this puffy puffy puffy dress!

here are a few "process" shots to wet your whistle

these are detail shots of the "threshold dress"

that will be part of one of the installations at Packer-Schopf gallery

on June 3

This dress has a train that spans approximately 10 feet

it is covered with hundreds of ruffles made of scrap muslin, organic cotton voile,

silk bits, and findings....

it's going to be pretty epic- and there are 7 other dresses we are currently working on at the workshop

I hope you can make it, see you there- come check out what else I have up my sleeve
