Egyptian Collar

 Here, by the way, is the finished Egyptian collar I was making. After Hallowe'en I might take it apart to make new necklaces out of since some of the beads are real Lapis Lazuli and coral.
I know the Liz Taylor costume didn't have this, but I'm taking some liberties with the design.

Here is where the crown will sit, although it isn't actually attached yet.

Wing-Cape Completion


 Here are the last phases of my wing-cape completion. I had made the back panel too small, so I added to it and now it hangs much better. I drew guide lines on the wings and sewed over them as you would when quilting. So, after an entire day of sewing, I am pleased to say the cape is finished!
