Dollmakers at the Royal Feast Costume Party 

Dollmakers Costume Themselves in a Royal Manner to Attend The Royal Feast at the Doll Artisan Guild International Convention 

(Guide note:  There are many photos here; please wait for download!)

One of the highlights of the Convention was the official Convention Banquet, "The Royal Feast."  The banquet was a costume party, and prizes ($500, $250 and $100) were given to the best costumes.  Dollmakers from around the world once again showed their incredible creativity--most of the costumes were hand sewn by their wearers!  Below are some of the fabulous costumes from The Royal Feast; I wish I had room to include them all!
