Thanks for posting Kathy.
She is very sweat in her fine costume.
I remembered one of my studyers, who went to the design school same time as
me, she made a knitted jacket, in machine knit, where she also plaited the
long sleaves like you did with the puffed sleaves. It looked so elegant.
Took her hours to make, as i remember.............

My daughter does as authentic as I can convince her to. :-) I even make her
jewellry to make sure it all looks right. (except for the tiara in this
photo set, she thought she should have a proper tiara befitting a princess.
:-) )
Just because it's fun to think Bjarne might get all weak at the knees over
the stuff I make just because it's on my little one *grin*, here's my little
girl's Christmas concert dress this past winter, based roughly on Bia De
Medici and some Disney Princess thrown in to make her giddy. :-) There are
proper sleeves to tie onto the puffs, but they were just a little long at
the time and were annoying her, so we took them off.

She has a pretty convincing little Norse kit as well that she likes because
she can grub out in it - its all wool and linen so it washes without
trouble.

There is nothing like a child in period costume. I get weak in my knees,
every time i see it. And if i had children, they would have loads of
costumes i had made for them.
