I can finally revel what I had only called Secret Project #1 for the past couple of months since it was a birthday present.<\/p>\n

\"<\/a>
\nScarlett O\u2019Hara in the famous Curtain Dress
\n(For the VI: This is a puppet of the character Scarlett O\u2019Hara from Gone with the Wind. She has brown hair and green eyes. She is wearing a green dress and a green hat with gold fringe)<\/p>\n

This was an interesting project to undertake. I was lucky that the original dress and hat went up for auction within the past two years and I got screen shots of the catalogue photos which allowed me to figure out all kinds of things about both the dress and the hat.<\/p>\n

The rest of this is under a cut since it is rather picture heavy.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I think I am proudest of the hat since it was a rather complicated piece that I managed to figure out.<\/p>\n

\"<\/a>
\n(for the VI: A profile view of the puppet. Her hat is green with gold fringe, a chicken foot and black feathers on top)<\/p>\n

\"<\/a>
\nThe Original Dress
\n(For the VI: This is the actual costume on a mannequin)<\/p>\n

The first thing I noticed was the chicken foot on the hat, which seemed to be attached to the feathers. Yes, I checked. That is there in screen shots of the film. The back of the hat was a square pillow sham with gold braid all around it. Fortunately there was a chinstrap in the original, which made it easier to attach to the puppet. The designer and the seamstress were very clever in how they put this hat together.<\/p>\n

\"<\/a>
\nPuppet from the back
\n(For the VI; This is the puppet from behind. You can see the black feathers on top of the green hat and yellow chicken foot.)<\/p>\n

So there she is Miss Scarlett in all her puppet glory.<\/p>\n

Any questions as to how I made her or how I chose what I chose to make anything, please feel free to ask.<\/p>\n

I am grateful that the new owner of the puppet loves her very much.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
