Re: [h-cost] JA POF 4 - supportasse
giggle I've put the pictures on the Tudor tailor list already. There will be a how-to along in a bit. T'warnt hard. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Tudor_Tailor_Reader/photos If you're a member, look for the photo album named Cin's gowns or somesuch. The supportasse is the 1st 2 pics in the album. I've since covered the neck edge, but you can still see the wire work and solder lines in these pics. No, I dont think the original was soldiered, I just thought it was easier for a novice wirebender. I also thought the lightweight tie-wires might snag my gown or ruff, so I went with a smoother solution. I've been in love with this supportasse for sometime, ever since a friend brought back the Ghent Museum's costume catalog. When I saw the bigger pics in PoF4, well, Something had to be Done. BTW, I just discovered your Compendium. Lovely stuff and just enough bite-side info for teatime. --cin Cynthia Barnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] Pictures, missy! Pictures at once!

Re: [h-cost] JA POF 4
I just got the email today that it was dispatched so I should get it some time after my last exam is over (this Friday) when I've got free time to examine it in minute detail. My dad bought it for me as a belated birthday present (my birthday was in July but he was overseas at the time I couldn't think of anything I wanted so I said we'll go shopping when you get home. Then I forgot got busy with study he reminded me that I hadn't claimed my birthday present just as somebody on this list mentioned how cheap it was on Amazon UK so I emailed him the link) So you see, procrastination and indecision is a good thing! ;D --- Elizabeth Walpole Canberra, Australia http://magpiecostumer.110mb.com/ ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume

It's here! It's here! It's here Mine got inspected by customs. Anyone else have this experience? There is two little folds on the cover where they repackaged. Looks like it happened on the UK side. Kinda strange. But then, this happens to me every time I order something from overseas, must be my real world last name ... Havas a derivative of Hamas.

My oh my, I have too much to do today to read every word, but I've paged through it all so far. Damn, I don't even care about 2/3 of this stuff, but what a treasure!!!
