Just an introduction

So, I have decided to start a new blog, devoted to my historical (in particular Regency) influenced costume making, a hobby that I quite recently have started, but it is indeed a dream come true. The really difficult part is to write a first blog entry that really makes sense, however, and I am far from sure I am going to succeed with that. I have written what you should know about me and my costuming approaches on the "About this blog" page. But it is worth repeating that I consider myself as an artist rather than a reenactor, and therefore I find it more important for me to put my personal touches to my creations than making them as historical accurate as possible. I do not have the right resources to do so either, since I am a rather poor university student (I am studying history and cultural heritage and have only a semester left). So no pure silks or brocades for me. Instead I am completely confident with using artificial modern materials as long as they appeal to me and
