Today I recieved a lesser quality made dress-up gown of Elizabethan era. My daughter tried it on at the fair last year and wanted it so badly. I had no more money then so we didn't get it. I found the same thing online and ordered it when I did get the money. It's a velour type fabric with attached collar that stands up. She'll love playing dress-up in it until I can finish her Princess Elizabeth costume. I cut the pin fabric tomorrow!!!!! I am waiting to cut the velvet sleeves until I can make a mock-up of it BEFORE cuutting that fabaulour fabric I found. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Catherine Olanich Raymond" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

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!
