Elizabeth likes the Unknown child7 picture. That is the basic design I wanted to use. I'll keep that one to use for reference.
Thanks.

What kind of embroidery? Blackwork?
If your daughter is trying to be Elizabeth I as a Princess then you are
looking at early Tudor styles for women.
Some children in portraits of the 1500s.

As for roses, this is a partlet and sleeves not a shift but good for
inspiration

Hi all,
  I'd like to embroider some Tudor roses on a shift
and I cannot draw, really cannot draw.  So I would
like to know if there is somewhere on-line I can find
black and white line drawings of Tudor roses,
preferably the five petal kind.  Books with this kind
of line drawing would also be great.  Other Tudor
flowers suitable for embroidery would also be of
interest for later but I would like to get started on
the roses soon.
                           Thanks,  Cassandra
