This month's A&S - a Gothic Gown Workshop - will be held at a different
location than our usual A&S nights.
Here's the blurb from the Drum:
>The "Gothic Gown" - Naadirah will share design and fit information for the
>"gothic gown" aka kirtle aka cotehardie aka "fitted dress that doesn't
>need a corset or bra to hold you up". Dresses of this type were common
>throughout much of Europe from the 13th through the 15th centuries. She'll
>show you how to create a custom pattern for a bodice that can then be used
>to create several types of gowns from this era. She'll also show you how
>to alter your existing gowns for a closer-to-period look and fit. And
>she'll attempt to convert you to the "no princess seams" school of thought. <g>
>
>Bring your dresses, your designs/pictures, and your sketches.... let's
>talk gowns!
The address is 9710 Live Oak Avenue in Ben Lomond.
