A shawl goes to a night at the opera

This cotton and rayon summer shawl was purchased from my etsy shop yesterday. As usual I wrote a personal note to the buyer and then was pleasantly surprised to get a note back.  He said he was the costume designer for the Lyric Opera of Chicago and my shawl would be worn by a lead in an upcoming production.  How exciting.  I hope he gets back to me with which production as there's a big long list of them on the website scheduled for 2015. I always like to send a personal note to a buyer instead of them just getting the automated thank-you - sometimes it pays in me getting to know where my wovens are going........

**Opera Update**  It's going to be worn by a lead in the new production of the Mariachi Opera called El Pasado Nunca Se Termina which plays on March 28th.

    1. If they do I'll share it but so far haven't heard back as to which production is will be worn in.

  2. How exciting! I am very curious to hear which opera your shawl will be gracing. My youngest sister is a professional metso soprano and has sung on that particular stage in the past. Exciting stuff!

    1. If I hear back which production it will be worn in I'll let you know Martha. I'm really hoping to learn more.
