auntyalias: these are tiger folded sheets
auntyalias: using tiger cane backed with pearl, and then pressed into
pleats
nor4man93553: it is lovely
auntyalias: to match the curved seam of the sleeve top we need to cut
a curved seam on the bodice, these two pieces will be the front of the
shirt
nor4man93553: love those animal prints
auntyalias: clothing the figures isn't difficult
auntyalias: it's just laying sheets of clay on the body, if you use
just rectangles you get native costumes

underarm and crotch
