I was wondering if anyone on the list is near Winston-Salem, North Carolina, or knows of the "costuming" scene out that way (groups, clubs, get-togethers, etc.) I will soon find myself living out there and would like to hook up with other costumers in the area. Thanks, Joan Primmar-Broneske _

There is an active Vintage Dance community to too far away from that area. http://www.trianglevintagedance.com/ They could probably recommend costuming groups, and give you events to wear costumes to if you like the 19th and early 20th centuries. Katy On Mon, Sep 22, 2008 at 12:26 PM, Joan Bron

We built for Into the Woods this summer - there is definitely a cow, but ours was moulded out of insulation foam and papier mache, rather than using an actor. I believe Jack has to take her to market. JEan Becky Rautine wrote: I know that Simplicity has one that is very easy to make and migh

On Broadway it was an obviously fake cow (can be either a cut out or sculpted) on wheels that Jack pulls along with him. Kate -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Anne Sent: Monday, September 22, 2008 2:33 PM To: Historical Costume Subject:

Now I remember the cow we had. One of the boys kept knocking it over. IT was on wheels to help it off but after a few moves, it didn't want to roll so the boy just picked it up and walked off with it under his arm. It was funny. Sincerely, Rebecca Rautine -

I saw a very good cow costume made from one of those white paper hooded suits you can buy for messy diy, a black marker pen, a pink rubber glove and some cardboard horns and hooves. Sent from my iPhone On 22 Sep 2008, at 20:03, Becky Rautine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Now I remember the c
