Capt. Sterling Posted October 5, 2006 Author Posted October 5, 2006 Well I promised you the Captain's daughter, Sarah Sterling, next... Honestly, since the day she started doing Living History, she pretty much has had the correct kit no matter what the time frame... and being as biased as I am about her, tis hard for me to find a bad picture of her... . So, we will take her out of her American Old West duds as pictured below, and transform her into a child of the 90s, 1690s that is.... Here she is in Reconstructing History's Lady's Hunting Outfit... she is wearing a sleeved waistcoat over a long, trained, brocade petticote... And here, with her jacket, sash and cocked hat.... Her coat has lately undergone the change from pewter buttons to Dorset.... Our next victim, I mean study, will either be Cheeky or Mr. March, but we will have to wait until after the Lockhouse event.... Stay tuned... "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell... I was forced to write what I would say to prevent the loss of blood, and because of the pain I suffered by speaking."~ Woodes Rogers Crewe of the Archangel http://jcsterlingcptarchang.wix.com/creweofthearchangel# http://creweofthearchangel.wordpress.com/
Cheeky Actress Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 Lovely! Just Lovely! Lilly says with a smile... Then suddenly pales when her name is mentioned by the good Captain. 'Tis my head and Master March's next upon the block?!" Suddenly she faints falling into the Captain's arms. I can't wait to see what you come up with! Member of "The Forsaken"
Rumba Rue Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 I forgot the sash, but the idea is here. I used Kass's Hunting Coat pattern. I didn't want to make the long back due to dragging in the dirt and burrs on the ground (and getting caught in the wheels of my wheelchair I was using), but I did find a perfect riding crop. **I recently re-did the hat so now it's tricorn.
Capt. Sterling Posted October 5, 2006 Author Posted October 5, 2006 Wow Rumba!!! Beautifully done! The colour combination looks great on you!! and the trainless version really does look just as nice!

Rumba Rue Posted October 10, 2006 Posted October 10, 2006 Thank you all. It's rare to get a good picture of me- as I'm not a photogentic looking person (the pictures were taken early in the morning). At the end of a day at an event I look like hell. BUT, now that I have my new scooter to get around, I hope I won't look so bad or feel so crummy at the end of an event. I'll know how it goes in Vegas this coming weekend. When I wore that outfit during the day, I had lost more weight since I made the skirt, and it kept falling down. Even saftey pins didn't help. I've now taken the skirt in, so hopefully the problem is solved.
