Trying to look downward while wearing a doublet is not recommended.

Gosh, you make the most beautiful things! (And the second picture makes me want to make and wear a ruff. I've never wanted to wear a ruff before! Look what you've done! <3)

Great job!  I especially like the 3rd picture for your attitude/posture.  I can almost see you in a Coello painting...

Oh, glorious!! That red silk is so perfect. The ruff is a fabulous finish, but... when did you make a red velvet doublet?!

I think I made the doublet in 2004 or 2006..was my first doublet!

Wonderful!   I would love to have an open ruff like that for my "doublet"  How did you attach it?

Thank you for the kind words everyone!  :)

Prima all I did was use two sewing pins to pin it to the doublet collar lining.
