Tutututututututu

As we were discussing tutus recently:  here is a nice photo walk-through of how a classical tutu skirt is constructed in a professional costume shop.

    1. I agree! I love the sleek, flat look of pleated tutus. I'm not sure how I will do mine, yet. Depends on the plate I put over it, I guess. The embroidery is going to be pretty intense.
