Hi! I’m Susan!

I am a social historian and preservationist who uses historical clothing to interpret the stories of the past. Since childhood, I have been fascinated with folklife, history, and the “old ways of doing things.” When I was six years old, my mother (named Maggie May), made me my first historical costume- a Holly Hobby calico dress with matching sunbonnet. I wore it everyday. As I grew older, I came to understand by wearing the clothing of the past, I could obtain a deeper understanding of the folk who came before us. This fascination has followed me throughout life. I am now a University trained historian, artist, and educator. I rely on my extensive knowledge of diverse cultural heritage to design, drape, and build high quality, authentic, historical garments. I love to recreate clothing of the past to preserve histories for the future.
