Lara's Personal Gown Inventory & Wish List

This is a To Do list & inventory of all the gowns & period garments I want to make for myself in the coming years or have made and now own.

I am often invited to events where period dress is required and I am ashamed to say, "I haven't a thing to wear". I want to come along to these events so badly. It is just not right that I do not make things for myself. No more excuses. Here the ideas, inspirations and plans for what I will make for myself in the near and distant future:
