Victorian day!

My first gap year project was to produce a Victorian school child outfit for the 150th anniversary celebrations at Madeleine's school.  I am very pleased with her skirt and apron made from pillowcases!  The more observant reader will notice that the skirt is recycled from the Shrove Tuesday nun's outfits!

I did try and convince Madeleine and her friends that Victorian children didn't talk or run around but they didn't believe me :) 

William and I are off to the time capsule ceremony later :)
