What I wore to the Ren Faire
A few weekends ago I visited my local Ren faire, how could I resist when the weekend theme was Italian Carnival? This dress is a few years old now but I finally have decent photos of it which can be found

I finished my English fitted gown and it now has its own section in the costume gallery. There is no dress diary this time as it was a stop and go project that I worked on when I had time. I am working on adding other costumes to the gallery as well, it is just the matter of finding the photos from over the years, and in a few cases retaking them.
