Build A Pop-Up Dressing Room From an Old Tent, Part 1

July 17th, 2009

My newest project is building a dressing room tent. My friend is a model and mentioned that she was looking online for a pop-up tent that she can use when she’s doing a photo shoot and there’s no other access for changing clothes. The ones she found online were $75. I decided I would make one because I bet myself I could. We’ll see who gets theirs first—her by mail, me by engineered sewing.
