Thanks for letting us know. I've been a bit slow on opening Coopersville (Edwardian community) because the man who has lived with me in real life for the last 12 years died the end of August and it's taking me a bit of time to get back into things again.

Thank you Koshari. Your name has a beautiful ring to it to. Michael, thank you for the Gayazo information. Will be checking into that. Sounds much easier.

There is also another note of information for this era. For most of the era the decorations on the clothing were mostly embroidered with beautiful rich threads, as when they started entering the flapper style pencil dress it was mostly beaded. That was considered to be a drastic change. The ladies doing embroidery really slowed down at the end. I'm guessing because they were getting more adventurous. It is also quicker to bead then embroider. Love doing both:)

I am also a costume designer, and will be starting with the Edwardian era. Not just woman's costumes, but men and children also. I'm afraid that I only do small pieces in mesh for extra detail. All of my creations will be the old standard way of making clothes. I also would like your input on an idea that I was thinking about. Since there is really no hair out there yet,(Edwardian style) I was thinking on adding it directly to my hats. Giving the choice of hat with hair and without hair..... a girl just has to have choices...:):).
