Robin, the gowns are just stunning and look amazing.
We do some re enactment so use cottons and wool fabrics which work very
well. I wanted something in lace to wear in my character, nothing too
ostentatious as we spend most of our time walking about fields so petticoat
hems would very wet and dirty and not seen either. So I made a kerchief to
wear around my neck and shoulders, edged with a pretty but fairly simple
narrow edging of lace, keeps me cozy on chilly days and evenings and
smartens up the rest of the outfit.

Stunning! My second reaction, Robyn, was to wonder how horribly hot it
must
have been in your gown with long sleeves, many layers, and the requisite
underpinnings, while all the observers are dressed in shorts and
T-shirts!!
My hat's off to you!!<<
Thanks again. Hot? What's that? I have approximately four layers of fabric
on. It's all natural fiber so it does breathe. But it still can be a bit
sweaty under it all. Though, I have designed it so that it's not really
tollerable to wear under about 78 degrees. It breathes too well.
