Personal Narrative: My Two-Week Costuming Experiment
My two-week costuming experiment began when I went to Wal-Mart to find some supplies. I remember heading to the overwhelming selection of fabric for the first time. I picked out a few yards a silky red fabric and a thicker purple one. I also bought a plethora of other supplies.
I started patterning by taking a long-sleeved shirt and placing it on some ancient craft paper that kept on curling. I traced the shirt and hastily drew some hem lines on the tunic and sleeve patterns.
I used the same patterning method for other parts of my costume, but with more patience. My mom worked the sewing machine.
I constantly tried to figure out how to make rocks that hung around my neck. I tried to use clay over styrofoam, but the rocks turned out too
