The one tradition I love is my Mothers fruit Cake, passed down to her from my grandmother. The outfit I would like to see is a Japanese Princess Outfit. And thank you pixiefaire for all the wonderful outfits you have made available so far, they have all been absolutely adorable.
My interest in Scottish culture began when my youngest daughter went to a high school where the mascot was the Highlanders. First she began Highland dancing and then she learned to play the bagpipes. I really enjoyed sewing various dance costumes and I learned how to make a traditional kilt which requires 9 yards of fabric and arranging the pleats so they replicate the appearance of the plaid design as it appeared on the bolt. After graduation she attended a college where played the bagpipes for The fighting Scots. The capstone of this experience was a trip to Scotland to deliver her to a university that she attended for a semester. She bought home 9 yards of the school plaid wool so that I could make another kilt. She later attended graduate school at another university where the mascot was the fighting Scots and played the bagpipes for various activities. I was so excited to see that the graduate regalia included a lovely traditional tam that is black trimmed with the school plaid. Lately she has led the family Scandinavian culture so II would like to see more Scandinavian patterns.
A traditional outfit pattern I would like to see would be a German dirndle dress.
A favorite cultural tradition I take part in is going out with friends and family for a fancy English tea. A cultural pattern I would like to see offered at Pixie Faire would be everyday outfits from the early 1900’s such as Anne of Green Gables, Downton Abbey, and Mary Poppins.
