This title might be a misnomer. I wanted to put "Tudor" originally, but thought it might be rude to put the English term "Tudor" over Mary de Guise, wife of the King of Scotland. But Tudor is a little late for Medieval. Oh well!
When mother and I drove up to Stirling, we were able to see a wonderful demonstration of the lady in waiting dressing the queen.

Very interesting-especially about there only being a panel of the brocade that shows.
