2 months is an impressively short amount of time for such a project!
I get the sense from messages I have read that most folks on this list do
not make/study/write about historical clothing for a living. Is this true?
If so, what do you all do to fund your need to build historical clothing?
I am a mathematician. I work as a government statistician. That plus three
kiddies (I have a new little man, only 15 weeks old) take up most of
the time I used to have for costuming. This is a shame, because before
I had the job and the kids (they arrived more or less at the same time)
I was a student, and had the time but not the money for costuming. Now
I have money, but no time :-).
Mostly I do 14th, 15th and 16th century English clothing. I have grand
plans to delve into other eras, but I suspect they will have to wait until
the kids are older.
