Greetings to all!
I am yet another time travelling seamstress, having a fondness for Historical Clothing, and the things that pertain to them. Currently my wardrobe includes garments for Medieval, Tudor, Renaissance, Piratical, Victorian, and a little bit of Steampunk and Fantasy for good measure. My husband and I participate in a wide variety of Faires and related events, and thus our broad range of clothing.
For Christmas, I made so bold as to invite my Mother and Sister in Law to a weekend event to be held in Toronto, "A Weekend with Jane Austin" andthat, along with a recent introduction to Contra Dancing (We have been Ceili attenders for years) has prompted my arrival here! I have spent several days lurking about, reading posts and getting a feel for the era, and am pleased to make a more formal acquaintance!
Having always enjoyed Jane Austen, but fearful of the fashion being not so flattering for a lady of my height (I am 6 feet tall) I am, I hope ready to take the plunge as it were!
