Re: [h-cost] What's your dummy wearing this season?
Bygonne has been wearing a long sleeved tunic fashioned from two pashmina shawls. It is a sure thing for instant dressup for 2016! Currently on the ironing board is a sweet mini dress for my grandaughter. Found a piece of kelly green eyelash that should suit this 13 year old fashionesta! Of historical fashion note" Queen Maud's dress form is wearing her Coronation Gown. It took me about 5 years to find the fabric. She isn't very patient nor obliging; I finally made a dress form for her (alas, not to be called TheDummy)because she had a serious problem with scheduling Fittings...

[h-cost] What's your dummy wearing this season?
Mine— alas, still stored. I miss her. However, were she out to play, she’d have her choice of several large hand knit lace shawls. I have spent a lot of enjoyable time knitting lace the last few years. It has distracted me from doing a lot of sewing. Since SCA-period groups are my only local choice I dabble occasionally there, but not enough to warrant new clothes as yet. Since my Elizabethans are not so comfy for many events I am working on hand-sewing a linen dress of the t-tunic persuasion with wide gores in the skirt. Then I sewed a set of gores in, inside-out.
