RESTAURANT OSHAWA < HID Hand-Quilt Fabrics For Stratford Play STRATFORD, Ont. (CP) --~ Deep in the workrooms of the Stratford Shakespearean Festi-e val Theatre, something akin to an old-fashioned quilting bee has been going on this spring. Set - designers and costume- makers have been hand-quilting fabrics in preparation for the festival's opening night June 6, Cynthia MacLennan, assistant to designer Desmond Heeley, says the quilting of fabric gives a look of weight and age that cannot be achieved by other methods. "We used to quilt fabrics by machine but this season for the first time we are trying hands quilting. We think it will be even more effective. It gives the effect of a heavy, well-worn garment. The audience, hows ever, will never guess that quilting has been used to achieve this." The designs for this year's opening play, Henry V, contrast the plain English court dress and the elegant French court styles. A subtle antique coloring ig used in the French costumes of brocades and silks, with ivony, cream, greys and _ brownish blacks chosen. "TI want to give the costumes a tarnished appearance," Hee- ley said, '"'so we are using all off-white color. Shakespeare himself refers. to the French court as the garden of Francé and we are trying to achieve this effect." Gold and silver fleurs-de-lis will be painted on the brocades and silks used in costumes for Queen Isabel, Princess Mare garet and Princess Katharine. In contrast, the plainer Eng- lish court costumes will -be made from corduroys, woo] and rougher textured fabrics.
