I hope it's OK to share this here! I was recently approached by Fabrics-store.com (our favorite linen supplier!) to talk about my historical costuming for their blog. I'm by no means a professional, so this was a huge honor for me!

Thanks for looking!

Oh, thank you so much. I enjoyed this immensely. And, oh, I do love a good sleeve

I'll be reading through this again just for pure pleasure.

Thank you for sharing.

Didn't know you're a published author as well!

And thanks for posting the link. Very interesting and informative interview.

Suo ergo maledicto

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. - Steve Jobs

What an honor! I have bookmarked this article to enjoy again, and pinned a pic or two on Pinterest. :-) I knew you were an author but didn't realize you had a new book coming out. Congratulations on that too.

Awesome! You have such talent! I read every word, and then read it all again. I didn't even know there were Renaissance Festivals. What a lovely hobby you have, not to mention being a published author. Are you sure you were not born with a needle in one hand and a pen in the other?

Thanks so much for giving us an insight into your life.

What a great article - thanks so much for sharing. I've only scanned it so I've bookmarked it to read in detail when I have more time. And I had no idea you were an author!

Like some others, I am going to have to read it again (and again). You are a very creative and talented lady and to have this interview is a feather in your cap. I am so very happy for you.

Thank you for sharing this. What an interesting life you lead!!
