I have made my first Ren Gown in 2007. This is the Diary of its construction. Most photos are from my cell phone. I hope these note will be of some help to your sewing adventures or lead you to the useful places from which I have benefited. I like to think of myself as a playtron at the Michigan Ren Faires.

A Hat for the Red/Gold Gown from 2008
I bought a sequined 1980's hat from a thrift store and covered it in the same gold as the kirtle. I made a bow out of the same curtain sheer fabric as the partlet and hotglued trim on the edge. I also made a caul of the same gold fabric.
