I had an expensive education, went to be a costume designer, four years
study at an artschool in Copenhagen.
But couldnt find a job, so i made another education to a kind of nurse,
where i take care of elderly people living in their own home. This is a
full time job 38 hours a week, with work every 3rd weekend + hollidays.
But as i simply cant live without making historical costumes, i make them in
my sparetime, some for myself, others for reenactors and museums.

2 months is an impressively short amount of time for such a project!
I get the sense from messages I have read that most folks on this list do
not make/study/write about historical clothing for a living. Is this
true?
If so, what do you all do to fund your need to build historical clothing?
I am an attorney by day but I am fascinated with all types of historical
clothing from about the 15th century through the 19th. Someday I will
focus
on one time period but I haven't yet.
