Personal Memories

I was honored to discuss the construction of my court garb with Baroness Anastasia. She had some helpful pointers and interesting questions about my work, and overall was very complimentary. The other work done by people at the costumer's guild meeting was very impressive and laudable. --José Cabrera de Castilla 12:02, 14 Jan 2009 (PST)
