I'm well underway into making my first Renaissance garb. My daughter has
chosen the portrait of Princess Elizabeth in the pink/orange dress. I'll
post a diary somewhere when it's done. I have paid way more than I should
have to gather all the correct fabrics and assessories. I plan on her
wearing it for quite a while, too. When hers is done, I'll have to make
myself one so we are in the same time frame. Since I'll be taking her with
me at the same time, makes sense to me to be within reason on our garments.
One thing about having to pay so much for all this stuff... I buy in bulk
when I can. I'm all set to make a whole wardrobe one day. Now, How do I
organize it all so I can find something. that is the next major task I need
to get done one day soon.
Any one able to come help me do that?

Hi Becky--I live near Harrisburg, in York. I'd be more than happy to help
you drool over the book!
I'm about 2 hours east of Harrisburg; Dianne is definitely closer.
But for what it's worth, my copy arrived today. It truly is
droolworthy--even
though my real love is the Viking era! What spurred me to buy the book
was
the hope of enabling the authors' proposed next project--The Stuart
Tailor.
People able and willing to prepare works like these are to be encouraged.
Viva Ninya and Jane, and their whole team!
