Hubby's Tourney Garb

Did I mention my hubby adores Black & White? So I have to make him some linen Garb, and I have some trim that is black/silver/blue and I am thinking? This would be fun!

Colors in Elizabethan England

So I was checking out the fabulous group on Facebook called 'Elizabethan Costume' if anyone here loves this time period like me? Do check out this group, I have learnt so much during my time with them!!!  Anyway, click here and will lead you to an extensive look on the colors given to QEI from the people in her Court and Peerage. Even a description of the colors and when it was first showed up, like the term "pink"or Purple.  I have a class I give on how to get Fabrics that are representative of the Renaissance and I always add things about the colors, types of fabrics and the like.  So this has been very exciting for me!

Yep Had to Shop Til I Drop

 Yes I went shopping down in LA when we were down for my Uncles Remeberance. The one on the left is from Ren Fabrics on eBay but the rest was acquired with my mom, in the $8 to $5 for the roll sections for silk at Home Fabrics.

So awesome!
