So I MUST get off my fanny and actually start on my historical costume wardrobe. I have NOTHING--not even a stocking--anymore and have to get started. I have several events I have missed because I never have the proper garments to wear so I have to decline. Since these events cover a wide range of eras it really is a task I have before me, but am relishing it :)
It has been a very long time since I have sewn anything, for fun or otherwise, and I am very glad to be getting down to it. I love the surfing for ideas and inspiration, finding the right fabrics. All of that stuff. This is a very long list, and pieces will not get done all at once of course (and I am certain I will ad more to them) but I wanted an idea to get started and begin my supply search.
