A Little Elizabethean Eye Candy
Isn't embroidery wonderful? You get to admire really beautiful STUFF!!!
Here are a few bits for you - or in TNspeak y'all.
David Claudon's Elizabeth I Transformations remind us that paper dolls are not new. Is anything really new under the sun. We merely re-interpret don't we?
For a comprehensive look at images of Elizabeth I, lose yourself in this portrait page.
Thanks to Racaire I spent far too much time pouring over images of early gloves posted by Katherina.

I am also very thankful that she started a blog recently and shows her work and research now at the i-net :)
I had the most enjoyable Sunday morning sipping coffee, looking over the portraits of Elizabeth I and reading about her life. Thanks for the links and your post. Melinda

Go Forth and Clean Out Your Attics
During a recent spring cleaning at Sudeley Castle a rather vintage christening gown was found. Seems it was worn by Elizabeth I at her christening. Very nice find considering how few clothing items we have from that period.
So, folks my plea to you is --- Go forth and clean out your attics. You never know what you may find.
