New garb or accesories?

[Francisco Paula]

Got all my stuff for a new sailor look just want to tea dye the pants and the sailor bag to give it more of an aged look and i'm not so white.

I got the swatches in the mail for my new garb Friday. I must admit I loved the green for my Tuder dress but the contrast fabric and color for the under skirt was Horrid. The Lady Kathleen who does my garb sent me two samples for the gabled hood and I told her to use one for the underskirt as well as the gabled hood. After she looked she agreed this was the better choice and it would then tie the gabled hood in with the dress. The green is a Jaquered green with a beautiful design on it. The underskirt, false sleeves and part of the gabled hood will be a gold sewn with diamond shapes. I will then sew on pearls on each point of the diamond on the under skirt.

The Pirate/Swashbuckler Jacket will be a beautiful burgundy velvet with a black jaquared and white lace. I cannot wait for faire and new garb.

Garth wonderful new garb.

This is what i always wanted my outfit to look like. Just an everyday sailor pirate but when i started my first one just went overboard in more ways then one now i am at what i wanted all along and except for loosing the big belly its perfect.

Though I am getting more new garb this year, I still may not be able to afford a kilt. How sad. I am crying...really I am...and, I am heart-broken. I have been going to Highland Fest for twenty years and still havn't gotten a kilt.   Tears.

Got the swatches for Toki's garb from Lady Kathleen of Olmstead today. All we both have to say is WOW. It is going to be beautiful. He in a beautiful blue and burgandy, I in a forest green and gold with gabled hood. And what is best, it is custome made for our bodies and pretty cheap when you get down to it.

So looking forward to faire.

Now that my hair is finally growing back, a bit- I might be able to wear my new hat.

[Francisco Paula]

I will have new accessories for garb that was new last year.  I may possibly have a new cape as well.  I just have to find the time to make it.

Auntigiggles,

I note that you hail from the Twin Cities.  Will you be joining us in Larkspurshire this season?

[auntiegiggles]

Baron,

I am hoping to convince my hubby to go there this year.  If we do attend it will be the weekend of June 26th.     Keeping my fingers crossed!

Oh please do come!  We stand ready to welcome you heartily -- AND show you which privies will accommodate your court gown.

I know this photo is rather awful ... but I still can't get the time on my camera to work!  This coat was a project a friend and I have been working off and on for a long while (we both have crazy busy schedules).  The dark red material has fine black scrolls, and the buttons are winged dragons with fish tails.
