I like that they weren't afraid to have a character who was a complete snob, and yet somehow was still sympathetic. She reminds me of Hermione from HP, who I identify with so, so much.
I want practically all of Romana's clothes. I particularly like the red outfit in my icon.
I'd heard of The Story of English, but haven't ever seen it. I think I definitely need to check it out, though--I took a class on Anglo-Saxon translation first semester last year, so it's doubly entertaining for me!
If you and elflore ever dress up, ya gotta post a picture.
Oh, definitely. :) I've been looking up patterns for 1930s dresses online, and...most of them are bias cut, and I can't remember if that's supposed to be exquisitely hard or relatively easy to do. I have shoes that work for it, though!
