I have gone back to Notre Dame High School a few times since my first blog.  The class in only an hour and meets just a couple times a week.  So, as you can imagine, just creating the cheerleader skirts has been a big job.  Every time I have gone, Mary Beth has been busy working on them.  For me, it is fun to watch her go from the sewing machine to the serger assembling the skirt and finishing the seams.  It’s amazing, she has only been sewing for two years!  She is planning on a career in costume design and creation, I think she will do great!

On my first meeting with the team, we worked with the Palette software to create the letter “T” applique for the cheerleader sweaters.  Since then, Ashley has taken the lead on this part of the costume.  She did a great job  completing these from the embroidery to the final trimming.

While they are made from simple felt they add the perfect vintage touch to the sweaters.

Stay tuned for pictures of the finished costumes…we are off to work on the costumes for the football team.
