I'm in my final year of grad school and the semester has begun at a hectic pace. I costume design Wonder of the World which opens October 5. My next project is constructing puppets for our theatre's production of Alice in Wonderland. I'm excited about the project...should be a lot of fun.

I'll post pics of my shows soon!

I've been working hard on adding new costumes and designs for the store. I'm shooting for a reopening date of July 1,2007. I have several Victorian, Edwardian, Medieval, Renaissance and Character Costumes for sale.

The Spring semester has begun with a vengeance : ) I will be costuming our University's production of The Heiress this month and next month will assist in our production of The Fantasticks! So, it will be impossible for me to sew for Audreycarol.com until the summer.

I'll post some costumes concept sketches asap!

Thanks for all your support.

The show I costumed for grad studies is up and running so I'm ready to open my store again : )

Here's a picture from the play Merry Wives of Windsor. More to follow!

The Fall Semester begins at the end of August. I will not be accepting any custom orders after August 21, 2006 so that I can concentrate on my graduate studies. I will reopen in November. Thank you : )

Pirate Richie...Pirates of the Chillibean : )

Thanks for the great picture, Richie!

My latest pirate : )

He looks great!

I finished my mockup of Adama's Battlestar Galactica uniform. I only attached one sleeve (they're both alike) so I'll be able to quickly desconstruct the mockup and make a pattern.

I haven't posted much lately...I've been busy working on my Master's Degree in Costume Design. It's been a few years since I've been a college student so it's taken a little bit of adjustment to get back in to the swing of things : ) But, I'm enjoying every moment of it!

Chase dress revisited...I had a special request to construct the dress out of ultra suede. I love how it turned out and the fabric was wonderful to work with!

One of my favorite pirates (Dred Pirate William) sent me this video clip. I made the shirt and weskit, he made them look awesome! Thanks....aaaarrrrrrr.

Here's another picture of my Harry Potter Robe replica. I don't sell the patches, though.

Here's a customer in the Firefly Zoe vest. Thanks for the pic, Devon!

My latest project!

2006-01-06T15:32:00.000-05:00

This is what I've been working on...

2005-12-30T08:43:00.000-05:00

I've been drafting a reversible skirt for my Woman's Garb catalog. I love how it turned out! The skirts come in 2 color choices and are gathered on a very sturdy waistband that laces in the back. I also added a privacy panel/placket under the back opening. Each skirt front has a side split and a hook attached to the bottom. The bottom of the skirt can be lifted and hooked to the waistband to show off the coordinating underskirt. All seams are enclosed with no visible raw edges : ) 2 skirts in 1.

I'm also adding leaf necklaces. This one has ivory leaves with amethyst swarovski crystals, silver beads and silver clasp with lavendar swarovski crystals. It is beautiful!

2005-12-16T12:28:00.000-05:00

I love the feel and smell of this new leather suede jerkin! I used heavy 4.5 oz leather suede to construct the jerkin and brass grommets with leather ties to close the front. I'll be adding this style to my store soon!

2005-12-04T09:09:00.000-05:00

I've been drafting some wench garb! I'll be adding reversible bodice and reversible skirt sets and suede doublets/jerkins. I also have some bridal jewelry to add to my store : ) It's been a very productive season!

2005-11-09T12:18:00.000-05:00

Here's the new style Harry Potter Robe like the one from the latest movies. I drafted out the hood/shoulder seams and lengthened the hood. Oh, and I added a wand pocket : )

2005-10-31T08:08:00.000-05:00

I will be adding new items to my store in the next few months. I'm adding capes, cloaks, robes and some women's garb (Renaissance and Pirate)! This will keep me busy through the winter : )

2005-10-24T08:36:00.000-05:00

Well, now that the Halloween rush is winding down, I think I'll tackle a new project ; ) I think I'll add a Zorro cape to my store...I can't wait to see the movie : )

2005-10-22T15:03:00.000-05:00

I received the ultra suede swatches and they are gorgeous : ) I'm going to check out one more place that's local to see if I can get the suede a little cheaper.

2005-10-13T08:34:00.000-05:00

I've been very busy this Halloween season : ) The firefly Zoe vest has been very popular! I'm still waiting for the ultra suede/leather swatches but I do have access to real leather suede for Mal's browncoat.

2005-09-25T07:06:00.000-05:00

For the browncoat, I've ordered swatches of ultra suede and should get those next week. Ultra suede looks and feels just like real suede but it's machine washable. It'll be perfect for the browncoat. I'm thinking about offering the strider jerkin in ultra suede also (price is about $150.00). I've also priced real leather suede just in case anyone is interested. Leather suede is gorgeous but it's twice the price. I can make the ultra suede browncoat for about $300.00 (depending on the width of the fabric)or leather suede for $600.00 plus shipping. I think I'll make one for myself : )

2005-09-17T10:27:00.000-05:00

I finished my Serenity duster mockup : ) I made this one out of a heavy twill. This will look great in ultra suede or suede leather so, if anyone is interested in the duster in ultra suede or suede leather, email me.
