This new adventure was a spur of the moment break from my long term projects. My friend mentioned a cool May day event at Kentwell Hall (my first even with living history and I loved it!) and I thought I should whip up a quick dress, but of course, it should be a 16th century Tudor style kirtle. Plus, I had this blue fabric in my stash and I had recently acquired the wonderful book 'Typical Tudor', so I was really excited to make something from it! It was so useful to have such thoughtful and helpful research at my fingertips, I really loved this book and all the attention and detail that went into it. Now that I've discovered lacing rings, I may never go back.
