Historian, Rachel Duffield, came to visit us for our February meeting to talk about Queen Victoria.
Talking through the life of Queen Victoria and the fashions of the time, Rachel started in her royal undies and gradually dressed herself with all the time appropriate clothing and accessories telling us about each and every one of them. She brought some beautiful victorian garments to hand around, demonstrating the quality of hand sewing of the time. As our open evening, inviting local WI's, we had nearly 50 people attend who all enjoyed Rachel's fabulously factual and thoroughly interesting evening.
