This isn’t the kind of thing I usually do!

In May 2019 WoolhelminaToo was part of a mixed chorus who won the Gold Medal to become National Mixed Chorus Champions at the British Association of Barbershop Singers convention.

The Cottontown Chorus joined with Amersham A Cappella to form a new chorus called A Kind of Magic.

After the convention he designed an illusion knitting shawl/wall-hanging for Amersham, using their logo and incorporating the name of the chorus.

Whenever Amersham take part in a competition they have a Barbie doll dressed to match their stage costumes. On this occasion they also had a Ken. Having made the big shawl it seemed only right to make one for Barbie. She looked a bit strange with just a shawl so she also got a dress, hat and boots.

Barbie is too small to show any kind of illusion but the dress and shawl do use illusion techniques to make the purple appear more prominent in the shawl and the white more noticeable in the dress.
