Subject: [h-cost] Blackwork in Lady in Green


I am working on a reproduction of the garments from the portrait of the lady in green at http://www.geocities.com/ailithmac/ladygreen.jpg . Before I spend time working out the blackwork pattern used on the smock/partlet collar, I thought I'd check here first to see if anyone has already done it.
Many thanks, Aylwen

I know I've seen a dress diary that featured that embroidery I have a feeling it may have been one of Bella's Italian showcases http://realmofvenus.renaissanceitaly.net/yourgarb/showcase.htm if I find it I'll let you know.
