Burda Style For people who sew
To follow on from the Edwardian wedding gown, Su and I have just completed a Mother of the Groom and a Mother of the Bride outfit. As yet, no pix…
Next up is completeing some sample garments for a LARP game (several different ‘nations’ all needing different kit!), I need a silver doublet (more LARP! This one a very cool space age Shakespeare setting!), and we and several potential customers need Restoration era kit for Kings Musketeers next February.
What are you planning to do next?
