A Troublesome Flock (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover
Excerpt from A Troublesome Flock
These directions are for those who wish special costumes. These are picturesque and pretty, but not essential. If you do not wish to go to the trouble of making costumes, many of the children may wear their own school suits, being distinguished by what they carry - BO Peep by her crook, Boy Blue by his horn, etc. Of course, those impersonating the Old women must have long dresses.
Old mother goose wears a quilted yellow skirt, about to her ankles, a red, pointed waist, and pannier overskirt, also of red. The waist has a chemisette of white. Her shoes are high-heeled, low cut black shoes, with large silver buckles and red heels. Her stockings are red. Her hair is powdered, and combed in any Old fashioned way. Her hat is a tall, pointed one, Of black, with a red band. She may have her knitting.
