This blog displays the various period reproduction projects and events I am involved in. I have been collecting historic clothing, and making reproduction period clothing, since the summer I portrayed the Father of Confederation Andrew A. MacDonald for the 125th Anniversary celebrations of the birth of Canada. This blog began in 2010 to mark the 100th Anniversary of Lucy Maud Montgomery's marriage and our reproduction project creating the outfits in her wedding trousseau.

1864 Clothing Display at "Olde Home Week Exhibition"
I was asked to provide a clothing exhibit in the 1864 Exhibit at the provincial Olde Home Week Exhibition in Charlottetown. Here's a few photos.
Crochet at Sharpe-Smith Home
I had a few friends over on a nice summer's afternoon to play crochet in 1864 period clothing - fun was had by all!
My friend Carter, on the far right, set-up these photos - great to see them in colour and B&W.
