A Star is Born

My friend C.B. sent me these after I made the costume and doll for Ruby's performances. I love the movement. Can't beat a circle skirt, even if the are a bit tougher to make.

Wow. The girl is heartstopping.

Awesome either way doll you made there. And that skirt is gorgeous - I can only imagine the time to put all those rows of lacy trim on. I've made very plain circle skirts, so much time, such a great payoff though!

Thanks Deb. She is a beautiful dancer and really loves it. The trim is mostly concentric circles of fabric.

I figure you could really screw with someone's mind - every time they look at the statue she's looking in a different direction. Heh, heh, heh.
