Barber of Seville - Santa Fe Opera

Doctor Bartolo’s Coat

Kevin Burdette as Doctor Bartolo

Assisting with the assembly of Doctor Bartolo’s coat was the first time I worked with canvas as a part of a coat. I practiced pad-stitching along the jacket front, flat lined parts of the sleeve, and observed assembly of such a structured garment. My most significant contribution was to finishing, applying layers of trim by hand on within a limited time frame.
