I don't know how I stumbled upon this video and I have no real context for this short speech.

Need to add something (like a rag) to the bottom to bring those arrows up into view (someone else made those and they're not quite long enough), but I'm mighty pleased with how these turned out. They look snazzy on - and they seem to be holding up well. And best of all . . . I'm a happy crafter now that they are all done. My only beef is the actors who wear them rarely have their backs to the audience and I don't get to see how awesome they look very often!
