I am particualarly impressed that Susan Vincent, author of Dressing the Elite, a book I actually bought at the Plimoth Plantation bookstore on my visit, on the advice of others, will be speaking. I have been working my way through this book and it is excellent. I am looking forward to hearing Ms. Vincent speak as well as the other speakers, all of whom sound fascinating to those of us interested in historical embroidery.
