Birmingham throws up some interesting projects, this is one of those. This
costume started out being so badly in need of restoring (I wish I had taken
a picture of before and after, will have to remember to do that in future)
so I completely took it apart, used the original pieces as a pattern and
replace some of the bad pieces. I managed to save quite a lot of it by
backing the original fabrics to support it. I really enjoyed sewing all the
original braid back on afterwards.
