    Weirdest Piece You've Ever Built

    ^ I had a friend make a straight jacket for himself in high school; he printed "Arkham" on the front, made it very epic. Felt like sharing.

    Weirdest Piece You've Ever Built

    That sounds epic. My weirdest piece so far is a three-foot golden pretzel worn as a hat.

    I've always wanted to do one of those living art shows.

    Seam allowance

    In all the costume shops I have worked in, we either use 1/2" or 1", depending on the project. Usually because the two allow the most possibility for taking in or letting out seams as needed.

    This seemed like the forum

    Although it would be fun to have our own section of forum (as a costumer), I am kind of used to being outside the loop when it comes to the technical side of theatre; being hidden in the basements or completely different buildings to work can do that to a person. Luckily, I'm not shy and often...

    I didn't expect anyone to bite the little costumer. We do hide pins well enough to be left alone.

    Very much like one. Full of padding and scrap fabric that covers the burn marks.

    This seemed like the forum to make an appropriate first post. Hello, all! I am new to controlbooth, I was referred here by the welder of our scenics department for the summer theatre program I am working in. Looking forward to meeting many of you and learning new and interesting things.
