    I always always enjoy each and every episode of Kate Lister... but this one really hit home. This is the amalgamation of the two main things I'm passionate about - fabrics/textiles and history! Thank you so so much to both Kates for making this knowledge available to us.

    Dress and fashion history is so utterly fascinating to me! I first became interested when seeing the China Through The Looking Glass exhibition at The Met, and was just, instantly hooked.
    But also what just gets me about stuff that’s usually termed “women’s history” or whatnot, (generally meaning just the history of minority/overlooked groups and people), is how deeply personal the extant documents and artifacts feel. Pieces like Anne’s textile scrapbook are so very human in a way that is both comforting and intensely compelling to me.
    I was able to find my great great grandmother’s photo album amongst my gran’s things several years ago, and the journey it has sent me on, trying to decipher the type of person she was and who each person in a photo was to her, has been baffling. But very intriguing!!

    I usually listen to your podcasts on History Hit so I have not been able to write a thank you for yet another interesting episode. It sounds like this lady was one of the long long line of people who feel the need to journal their lives. What a fascinating way of doing it.

    I'm totally onside with your Mum. And I had a giggle at your fair dues warning. I thought "fair dues for fabric?!" Then you said how much you enjoy it. I'm a seamstress and I practically drool over the thought of real fabric from the Victorian time. No cotton/,poly blends then!!!

    I feel rather proud that I knew Bombazine was the material being referenced. I'm soninterested in these dress diaries. I'd love to see them and fabric ledgers

    The story about Bombazine made me laugh because the first thing that came into my mind was 'bombast' and then said, "No, that's not a fabric!"

    Was she a dressmaker?
