Sorry you had problem accessing my site. I understand that folks with firefox are unable to access. If you have internet explorer, that will work. Of course, the fabric as well as the pattern is important but everything for the faire doesn't have to be tee totally historically accurate for a person to attend. I have made some historically accurate but mostly just what fits the period in time or fantasy. I never advertise historically correct unless it actually meets the standard of history. Thanks for your interest. Lady Von

I love authenticity, AND I love clothing that borrows beautiful elements from the past, AND I am plagued by a syncretistic sense of humor that, for instance, prompts me to imagine making a lovely robe a la française out of a nice lissere fabric patterned with...scottie dogs. The key is to keep them separate, and wear them where appropriate. However, just FYI, my Lady, when I went to your Web site, none of the navigation links seemed to work for me -- I could not get into any of your sections.
