In February I began making a Tudor kirtle, and it's finally finished! As I started it so long ago and then left it till the end to write this post I may have missed out some steps (Sorry). This costume was made with the intention of it being a fun project for myself that would use up some fabric and also give me the chance to explore a new era without having to worry to much about historical authenticity.
Hello and welcome to my blog! I'm a recently graduated Historical Costume student with a great love for sewing and plan to use this blog as a place to document my creations. I especially love the Eighteenth and early Nineteenth Centuries so expect lots of posts from those time periods though other eras will crop up from time to time.
