"Elizabeth"

(Part of the family group, "Patricia," "Rob," "Elizabeth," and "Matthew.")

Elizabeth is a musician and also named after a famous Jane Austen character, so we combined those themes into a sort of symphonic ball with red pinched taffeta and gold satin.

Austen I - "Amy"

This commission required that I combine three loves of Jane Austen, music, and the color sky blue.  The master design is a needlepoint rendering of the musical notation of Adeste Fidelis in Gregorian chant.  The crest is decorated with tassels and satin covered buttons.
