Dawnkitty

The first annual "Iron Dress" contest was recently held on the Yahoo group for Margo Anderson's historic patterns. The challenge (for those brave enough to accept it!) was to create an outfit using Margo's patterns, anything from your stash, and only $25 for extra supplies... and you had do make the whole thing in just two months! Sounds like fun, doesn't it? There were lots of wonderful entries, but the grand prize went to Dawnkitty for this amazing gown, which came entirely from her stash and only cost $40.44 in total! Bravo! That's quite a feat for Elizabethan nobility! You can see more pictures and a description of this dress here, and you can also see more of Dawnkitty's fabulous costumes at her main website.
