Fwd: Re: GE - Sewing Guild

[Jennifer Mittelstaedt]

Unto the populace of Gates Edge:

Supplies you will need are:  paper bags or some sort of paper suitable for 
making a pattern.  Pins, pre-washed material, thread to match.
   We are having a special guest at our guild this time.  I am sorry that I 
can't remember his name at the moment....  He has suggested that you bring 
an old sheet or cheep/leftover material to make a mock-up of the doublet.

  As an reminder the sewing guild will meet this month on the 18th of
January- 7:00pm at Lady Seren's.
I thank you for your time.
You can reach me at 281-876-0778 for questions or directions to Seren's 
house.     If you could please let me know if  you will be attending so that 
we know about how many people we are looking at, thank you.

    In Service as always - Gwyn

below are the fabric suggestions.
