Cool I Surrender!!!

Ok Ok Ok! If she wants to spend money on a beautiful dress then she gets it. But she can't come back and complain if it gets torn, dirty, muddy, or burnt by an ember the first time out!
Mama ain't been happy but now she can call the shots and get happy!
~heavy sarcasm~ Thanks GUYS!!
The whip has been officially cracked here on the homefront.

Better get the "not to complain if it gets torn, dirty, muddy, or burnt by an ember" in writing.

The thing to remember is that you cant be afraid of getting dirty, wet or seeing a few bugs, and other woodland creatures.

And If your lucky none of the above will come home with you

Enjoy yourselfs and make the best of what comes at ya.

I had to come back and add this.

As I have been reading accounts of the Battle of Piicketts Mill, Georgia.
Although reenacting is quite fun.. Keep in mind that you are portraying real folks "Men Women and Children" that walked this earth 140 + years ago. Portray them honor and respect.

regards,
Steven

Heck when I first got into this hobby, I thought all I needed was 3 simple dresses and a ballgown. Well.... I now have 11 dresses plus two ballgowns and I am currently finishing up my newest dress, and that doesn't include the two I have forsale! And to top it off, I have almost as many hats to match all of them!! I love to make the ladies riding hats. I am not a bonette person at all. Can't stand the darn things! So I make the sassy jaunty riding hats.

So HC, look out, you've have just opened a new kettle of fish!!!
