Eeh. Installed Office on my father's computer last night, then went to apply for a job this morning - didn't get my reply in anymore... D:
I'm getting to know my sewing machine better, so I'm gradually finding sewing rather more relaxing than I used to :). Some things I can do really quickly now, though doll-sized clothes will probably always demand quite a bit of finishing by hand. The seams of the sleeves and the ribbons are all stitched by hand, but the cloak, for example, probably only takes me a quarter of an hour :D.
This is my primary (because most comprehensive) Gaelic Dress resource: Gaelic dress. There are images at the end of the document. But I also use my imagination or steal things from Roman/Byzantine and Germanic dress/accessories if I think it looks good ;). Caps or pouches would be wonderful though. They'd make the dolls more lively :D!
