| Exhibit A - the bumroll. It maketh the skirts go sproingy. | Exhibit B - kirtle and farthingale pattern layout. |
 |
 |
| Here I am in just the farthingale and bumroll. | And here's the back of the farthingale/bumroll combinations. |
 |
 |
|
| Here's the kirtle over the farthingale without the bumroll. You can see that the bumroll is really necessary to make that first tier of the farthingale lay right under the skirt. | Not a great picture, but you'll notice that when I added the bumroll the problem with the lumpy top tier did mostly go away. |
And
here's the back view.
|
 |
 |
| This is what the skirt will look like when it's finished and draped over the forepart. | Trim and fabric detail--that wide band of trim (between the two narrow ones) is from my wedding gown. |

Look
how the skirts go sproingy-sproingy over the bumroll!
