Jodie Ruth Canberra, Australia I dreamed of making historical costumes as a teenager. Little did I dream it would ever be possible! I always thought that I was born in the wrong era, until I realised I was born at the perfect time. I have the benefits of modern technology, medicine, and being an unmarried woman past the age of 30 doesn't mean I must rely on my family to support me. I fell in love with the Jane Austen adaptations and later the books, In real life I work in web publishing in a Commonwealth Government department. My goal for this challenge is to at least complete undergarments and accessories.
