Scar Chaps

Scar's chaps are two pieces of leather stitched together in an intricate pattern (1, 2). The side of the leather that faces audience then has sections cut out very carefully to reveal the leather below (3). Once each piece is fabricated they are then stiched together (4) and top stitched (5); meaning I sewed through six layers of leather.

Giraffes

The Griaffes wear jumpsuits covered in large quilted patches (the largest being 2 1/2 feet by 2 feet). These patches are comprised of cotton, foam, darker miliskin, lighter miliskin, and canvas (1). These layers are all quilted together from the back (2) and then have sections cut away to reveal different colored layers (3 and 4).

Disney Live

I worked on the entire look for Woody and Jessie in the Parson-Meares studio in New York City. I then traveled to Florida with my draper to fit and alter in an expedient manor Woody, Jessie, and Genie.
