went to the heroes and heroines exhibition at the Leeds museum, for research into historic costume and also to look at the tailoring pieces, did alot of sketches.... was really interesting to look at the old corsets they wore all those years ago, and also how everything was made so beautifully and by hand, most of the time, everything has alot of detail. images from sketch book, of visit to the exhibition
