Since my Renaissance-themed lists have garnered so much attention, I thought you might be interested in my new, custom-made chemise. It was made by the infinitely talented (and equally important: reasonable!) Bonnie from thistlebees.com. As you can see, the stitching is perfect and the fabric is gorgeous. She helped me to design this piece with my character in mind and then she brought it to life in no time flat. The price was great and the product is better - a combo that one is hard-pressed to find, especially among faire merchants. If you are in the market for anything historically accurate and embroidered for a fantastic price, I cannot recommend her highly enough. She's also made me a partlet (not pictured, because I am dumb and forgot it when I was trying this on), which is even more detailed. Drop Thistlebees a line! For more info on the rest of the costume, some historical reference and other tidbits, visit my Big Renaissance List.

Dudes and dudettes,
Stop spamming me with a million frickin emails about your blogazines, styleboards and lists. I know they're there - I see the updates on my page every time I log into kaboodle. You don't need to remind me. It's annoying and, frankly, makes me far less likely to look at your kaboodle-tastic magnum opus. So, I'm going to start deleting people who send me multiple kaboodle messages daily and flood my inbox with crap I have to sort through. Thanks.
