I’m most interested in intercultural style fashion as well historical fashion. I will see a picture and then be obsessively inspired to research and recreate in miniature. The last Barbie I designed for an OCC shoebox had a Haitian Creole outfit (https://pin.it/2VeSp9H) and I even wrote the girl who would receive it about what I learned (about discrimination in the Caribbean in the late 1700s and about the points on the hat indicating the wearer’s marital status).

I’m most interested in any historical time period/style fashion. I love 1950’s style clothing because it was still playful but modest with full skirts for girls. I have a Felicity, so colonial is something I’d like to make sometime. I also have Marie Grace and Cecile and I really love that 1830s-1850’s. The ankle/calf length full skirts and beautiful details and fabrics are special!

I’d love to see a sew along for fur trapper boots or Edwardian shoes. I volunteer at a local museum, our focus is 1812 but, we have displays from Victorian, Edwardian, Prohibition, WWI & II, Colonial settlers, agricultural, Voyageur, and Indigenous peoples. I watch your patterns for anything that goes along with our displays and will help catch the attention of kids.
