Stimpzilla's Renaissance Dress Blog

We have been so busy. It would seem the entire court has requested outfits, and we have such little time to make them! Our fingers are worked to the bone and we have to be careful not to bleed on the gowns. We have been upon our work for weeks and fear we must continue our 12-16 hour days.

We are so happy to be working with such wonderful fabrics and have been getting delivery after delivery of the finest silks, trims, and threads.

Lucky the Alpaca is still doing fine and we are looking forward to his first batch of wool.

We have not finished work on our gillyflower doublet yet but we recently found a lovely silk to line it with. We will be most pleased when things wind down a bit and we can sit and play cards with Raleigh, Dudley and Hatton again! We hope we can wear the new doublet for luck.
