[Elfsea] A Day of Lectures on Medieval Dress- Robin Netherton at Marquette University

[Dáire and Druinne -- the Hays Family]

I have had the priviledge to attend a class given by Ms Netherton at a
Knowne World Heraldic and Scribal Symposium.  She is exceptionally
knowledgeable in her area of expertise.  If you can get to one of her
lectures, it is time well spent.
