I just finished a white/silver brocade horse show shirt for my daughter.
Then I mended a pile of odds/ends. Last winter I cut out a "spring coat"
for myself, so it was next. I'm about an hour or so from finishing it. It's
a blue and pastel plaid home-spun looking fabric.
I have a whole bolt of flannel sitting here to make my 6'5" son 2 or 3
flannel shirts that have sleeves that are actually long enough.
Then it's back to my daughter who wants another show shirt in black, tan,
red and gold. That is going to be a humdinger of a project. If you want to
see some examples here is a link with a good selection:

then it will be my turn again. I want to make a skirt and two pair of dress
pants to coordinate with some jackets I found at a thrift store.
Except for the show shirts, none of it is "costume" like and there is
nothing historical about them now. Maybe in 50-100 years...
