My featured Merit Badge Awardee of the Week is … Sherrilyn Askew!!!
Sherrilyn Askew (Sherri, #1350) has received a certificate of achievement in Stitching & Crafting for earning an Expert Level Nellie Will-do Merit Badge!
“I have spent over 100 hours stitching a costume for the upcoming Women’s Primitive Skills weekend. I made 3 chemises, 3 bloomers, and one linen day dress, all in the style of the late 1700s.
I still need to make a reticule for the weekend. A lady needs to carry her things, and pockets are going out of fashion at this time.”
Sherrilyn, what a cool lot of “undies” you stitched for your 1700s Primitive Skills weekend! I love what you made and please post a photo of your completed costume se we can all see. I would love to attend such a weekend event and learn and see about the fashions of the time of the birth of our nation. Imagine these were the garments that turned the heads of our George Washington and Thomas Jefferson!
