Catherine, What a great blog! Stuffed full of cool info & delicious detail pics. (Like spangles & silver wrapped silk threads.) Thanks so much for the pointer. A fair warning to others, tho', it isnt Elizabethan. The jacket in the portrait that they're copying is c 1614-18. --cin Cynthia Barnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
