  1. Very good, you’re costume is coming right along! You might want to consider your character sketch as you move along with your design, keeping in mind that you are going to be performing and exploring the possibilities for role playing.

  2. Tiffany you did great at the rehearsal , I like how your skirt became part of your dance !Now we know that we need to attach the electronics very well and continue with your top and bonning!
