    My 12th century white silk underdress .3 – revisited – more about my decorated silk buttons

    2015/11/15

    And after the last two postings about my 12th century white silk underdress, there is actually just one last major work step of this project left which I haven’t shown you yet. Yes, you are right, it is time to take a closer look at how I created the decorated silk buttons for the Trapunto style keyhole neckline of my 12th century white silk underdress. 🙂

    My 12th century white silk underdress .1 – revisited :)

    2015/11/04

    Today I am going to revisit an “old” project of mine – my beloved 12th century white silk underdress. And yes, before you ask, it is the underdress with the Trapunto neckline, the hand made, decorated silk buttons,… 😀 How come? Well, while I was working at the 14th century hood project for my friends Pelican elevation, I was asked if I could revisit my 12th century white silk underdress. And as I always love to talk about embroidery in general and in particular about my projects, I immediately and happily agreed to revisit this project.

    positive review  She made a masque for me, and helped me pick color an design, then gift-wrapped (😍) it when I said it was a birthday present from me to me -- well constructed and as attractive as possible given what it is. I will definitely buy again. Kendra of the White Castle

  • positive review  She was amazing to work with, flexible to my needs, answered all of my questions, and has been just incredible. Not only is she talented and interesting but is a genuinely kind person. I got a new bag with my heraldry, for which I have received many compliments, and block stamps for my household. I will commission from her again.

    Incredible customer service skills and communication. I ordered a set of placemats and a table runner and after 6 months of daily use they show no signs of wear and are still vibrant and beautiful!!

    I purchased a printed scarf, and Racaire was able to help me with international shipping (via messenger). The item arrived quickly, exactly as promised, and beautifully wrapped. And as a bonus, Racaire is a lovely person. I recommend Racaire and hope to make future purchases soon!

Finally weekend and time for Dolce Vita to recharge the creative mind! 💕🤗💕...and time to try out a new place here in Ft. Walton, the Florida panhandle, while we are out: "Pink Coyote"I instantly feel so at home - cute inside with an outside sitting area, great cappuccino and lemon-olive cake... European feel and some well deserved tranquility in this fast paced world... I love it!#racaire #florida #floridapanhandle #pinkcoyote #pinkcoyotedessertco ... See MoreSee Less
