I certainly hope so, because I'm afraid I know absolutely nothing about Irish
veils and
I am fishing for some info, and thought, ah-ha! H-Cos can help! My friend
MaggiRos specifically suggested Robin Netherton, but I know there are some
other experts out there. So, folks, here I go.
I am preparing a class for the Costumers' Guild West's Costume College 2008
