This is for the Maid Marian event going on at http://amandabethonline.blogspot.com/.
On October 3rd we had a Sherwood Forest Party,
and this is what I was wearing.
I made the dress and under skirt from the Butterick pattern 4827. I had been wanting to try the pattern for a while, and what a good excuse!
I was very happy with how it turned out.
