New Gallery Images

Just added some new images to my costumes gallery. They were a lot of work, a really great experience. Such great girls. Can't wait until next recital season! I really enjoyed creating some costumes for them that were comfortable and beautiful. Amber, the ballet instructor, sent me a lovely testimonial read it here.

Poll closed!

Thanks to everyone who voted, I appreciate your input! Looks like the new logo is a hit. I will be slowly working it into my branding.

Costumes are going great so far. Today I have to grade the pattern for multiple sizes. It's been awhile since I had to do this (since I usually only do one garment for one size). We'll see how it goes. After that I am doing two costumes, a bee and a mouse, for two four year olds. I may have another project as well. 

I will post some pics of the costumes soon!

New Logo?

I've been debating changing my logo, above is what I came up with. I wanted something more related to the name and Lily of the Valley always reminds me of my grandmother (it was one of her favorites). I do like the current one, and changing it would take a lot of adjustments... but I'm a small and new company and am able to get away with it until I find something that sticks. Plus keeping things fresh is always nice. 

I would like to know what you think. Should I keep the current one? or have something new?  

Please VOTE at the top right-hand side, thanks!

New Ballet Costume Contract!

I recently met with the ballet instructor over at Boston Dance Collective, here in Victoria, who has given me the opportunity to design 6 costumes for one of her ballet groups. These will be done for their recital in Mid-May. I am really excited at the chance to design for these girls! I've already got a few ideas, but I will check out the dance and meet with the girls on Friday. I wish my work station was set-up so I could start, but alas, everything is still in boxes until we move in on Friday. Busy day!
