About Me

Liz
I do Historical costuming, clothing, and various other sewing projects. I have been sewing since age 6, began helping my mom create historical costumes for SCA at about 8, and have been sewing off and on since then. In the last 12 years I have been more intense in learning about historical clothing of other periods (Victorian and Georgian in particular) along with beginning to drape and draft my own patterns, both for historical garments and modern ones. I live with my husband, 2 kids, 2 dogs and 3 cats in South Texas.
