ANDREA'S COMMENTS
Thanks Sharon. The sleeves almost did my head in...a lot of hand sewing. They are also detachable, which is really handy when it is too warm to wear them.
Very nicely made kirtle. Realist in its practicality. One can actually visualise someone wearing this on a day to day basis.
Very STRIKING in this color combination, and the fit is spot on. I love the added touch of the looped belt. :o(
Whoops -- ha! I meant to put a SMILEY face on my comment, and my fingers typed a FROWNY face. I'm not adding ANY faces this time. :o)) (Okay, I don't seem to be able to leave it off.)
Hahaha....I thought the accidental frowny face looked rather like a froggy. No harm done. Thank you for the nice comment. I just love the dress.
