Introduction | My reading material was always history based. Those hours reading transported me to a different time. The logical side of me knows that not everyone had the beautiful gowns that I have seen and researched. Yet the feeling you get from creating something so beautiful and wearing it , is well worth the effort. Clothing fit better and lasted longer. Why? The materials were real and people cared about how they looked because it showed status. |
Interests | I enjoy sewing, reading, listening to music, playing with my baby girl and watching history shows and documentaries. |
Favorite Movies | I love black and white movies. BBC has the best period pieces. |
Favorite Music | I'm very eclectic. I like musicals, pop, hip hop, rap, smooth jazz, lounge music, a lil country, alternative to name a few. |
