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.

Directions - make your way to Hwy 17. Exit at Mt. Hermon Road and head
into 
Scotts Valley.
Stay on Mt. Hermon Road until it dead-ends into Graham Hill Road - turn
right.
Turn right at the next signal onto Hwy 9.
Turn right at the 3rd signal (apprx. 3 miles down Hwy 9) onto Glen
Arbor.
         Note: There are TWO Glen Arbors, both with signals - turn at
the 
SECOND one.
Turn at the second left onto Live Oak - this is a HARD left.
We're the 4th house on the right side.

Please RSVP so I know who's coming.

And fair warning - we have dogs and cats, so take your allergy medicine
if 
you need it.
