Renaissance Dress
Lady Jane Grey is the Protestant Reformer our kids are doing a report on this year. Here is the ensemble of items from around our house which one of our girls will be wearing:

This is how we made a renaissance dress with what we have on hand...
 |
| © Principled Academy This is a simple skirt she sewed a while back. |

I had an old baby sheet (the elastic was too worn on a corner
for safe use any longer) which we used to make the sleeves out of. We cut from the elastic corners down so that the elastic could fit directly over the short sleeves of the dress.
The long pink ribbon being used for a sash was something I saved (because I just knew I'd have use for it one day! Haha!)

And of course this is the final touch (see my tutorial on it here)!
Blessings!
