Due to popular demand we presented a repeat of our popular  ‘Tudor costume Talk’ at the Woodhorn Museum in Ashington yesterday.

It was a splendid event – we were fully booked to capacity- people had to be turned away.

I am so pleased that so many people share my passion for costumes/history.

I have just received the comment below from Dorota.

“Thank you for the lovely afternoon at Woodhorn yesterday. I thoroughly enjoyed your talk and you have inspired me to make my own dress!

My great aunt was a seamstress to the last emperor of Russia and my love of needlework must have come through her!

I am not experienced at all but I am really looking forward to embarking on this journey.

It was a pleasure to meet you and Mick and I hope to see you again. Kind regards,Dorota”

I will also be assisting with the destructure of the ‘Dressing the Stars’ display at Woodhorn Museum. If you haven’t already visited the exhibition please go and see it.

It is a large exciting display and as it finishes next Sunday this week is your last chance. Costumes from the Duchess are pictured left.

It has been a splendid exhibition and I am looking forward to the opportunity if working with Yvonne Hellin-Hobbs and the staff at Woodhorn again.

I would like to thank Paramjit – Events manager at the Woodhorn for all her help and hospitality yesterday.

I have included a few pictures of my costume display.
