I wish we could have seen the finished project.

How exciting to be able to recreate such a sumptuous dress as worn by Elizabeth 1. Bearing in mind that the original was totally made by hand!
-
Will you provide another upcoming video showing your work completed for your global viewers who can't make it to Hampton Court? I would love to see it in detail, completed!
-
Gorgeous. So many talented artists and historians working to create beauty. Thank YOU.
-
I’m going to echo others here in asking for a video of the dress completed as well as being put on and worn by the re-enacter for those of us that can’t come to Hampton Court.

Amazing! The embroidery is sensational! Congratulations to all who participated.
-
So very fascinating! This could have gone into an entire documentary from start to finish but I understand the time constraints. Beautifully done video!

How truly exquisite. How clever these young women are. Truly awesome. Those fabrics take my breath away.

I think it is same atelier that made dresses in ¨A Stitch in Time" series. It is a must for historical fashion lovers! :) All episodes are here on YT! :D Yes,you are welcome!

This level of talent and attention to detail just blows my mind. Amazing, the skills these ladies have. Brilliant ❤
-
Amazing workmanship and attention to detail...I would expect nothing less from this group of talented and dedicated ladies.

I would have promised to bring coffee and snacks every day and work for free if they let me help.

Would love to go and see this exhibition in Hampton Court!

I truly wish I knew how to sew. It is a lost art and something I have always wanted to learn. My grandmother knew how to sew and I always remember looking through this chest of drawers in the room she used for sewing, which had tons of patterns in it. I also have a distant cousin who's a very skilled seamstress. She works in the theater district in NYC, making costumes last I heard. Anyway, what a beautiful dress!!!

I wonder whether Elizabeth II will come to view her predecessor's dress.
-
I have been a fan of Elizabeth I since I was a child....this is fabulous!!! Wish I could see the completed Fairie Queen’s dress.
-
I admire these women so much. I wish I was that talented with a needle and thread
-
Very respectful of the skills these artisans have attained
