Christmas Productions - The Sleepy Shepherd

[Guest guest]

Steffi is a camel in this year's production of 'The Sleepy Shepherd'.

I seem to remember last year that lots of people had already done the

productions that other children were about to do.

Anyone got any great ideas for a camel costume, better than the brown or

yellow top/tights and tail suggested by school?

Well, I mean, you've *got* to have a hump haven't you?! What about a

fleece hump (easy to make and stuff) - maybe Vicki can get her hands

on some camel coloured fleece?

I made a bumble bee outfit for DS last year with two colours of fleece

sewn in stripes and then sort of puff skirted round a coat hanger

round frame, sort of worked anyway! He looked really sweet...

I must put a scanner on my Christmas list.

Am reading this message to three small boys who are supposed to be

going to sleep but nice soothing bath didn't really have the desired

effect (apart from DS having his six-weekly bath) ... and are yelling

for us but am ignoring at present.

Actually, I have some. It's truly beautiful. I'm not sure how much I

have, but if over 2m I'd be happy to let some go. I have designs for a

fake fur tiger-skin coat for Freya with fleece lining, which would take

1.5m ish ish. Freya likes to share a wardrobe with Dolly Parton...!
