Some Stuff About Me


If you have questions, you can ask in my blog .  Please put the question in my most current entry, and put "Extreme Costuming Website Question" in the title space.  The blog is not locked, and if the question is interesting, I might devote a post to it.

Please do not ask huge generalized questions about sewing or costuming, because it's not likely I'll be able to help you (sorry, but it's true; my time is limited, and if you want to know everything about everything, there are lots of resources for beginners).  There are lots and lots of lovely web sites out there with all sorts of interesting information, so feel free to use a search engine.  Specific questions about research I've done, things on my site, or obscure questions about the Elizabethan period are very welcome, as are comments.  I do not do commission costuming (but if you want to know where to get awesome historical patterns, check out Reconstructing History - and while you're there, check out my embroidery patterns!).

E-mail:  Alternatively, you can e-mail me at elsworthy1 AT gmail DOT com - I try to answer e-mails in a timely manner, but you still might want to give me a week or so before you panic and think I've lost your e-mail or didn't get it.  I'm not fantastic at answering my mail very fast.  You are probably best off just commenting in my blog.
