Incredibly happy to have been selected as a speaker by @bsecs.bsky.social for their 2026 conference! I'm really excited to share my research with a new audience 👗🪡 #BigandSmall #QuiltedPetticoats #18thCentury

Tänään on #säätiöpäivä! Kiitos Svenska litteratursällskapet i Finland säätiönne tuestanne väitöskirjatutkimustani kohtaan Junossa @utu.fi . Tutkin 1700-luvun naistenvaatteiden käyttöä poikkitieteellisen tutkimuksen lähteenä erityisfokuksena #remaking & kehollinen tutkimussuuntaus. #SLS #PorvoonMuseo

Feeling exhausted about work, life and the world in general. As an antidote I'm going through some of my research photographs & thought I'd share this #18thCentury beauty with you, enjoy the #embroidery and the worn out but wonderful #silk fabric ❤️👗🪡

@costumesociety.org.uk the eventbrite ticket link doesn’t work, all I keep seeing is this ☹️

I always appreciate a good 16th century #map and lovely reading rooms! The Carta Marina by Olaus Magnus is rather a regional favourite here, being the earliest (somewhat) detailed map of #Finland with fab sea monsters included 😁 These wee beasties are just off the coast of Norway!

Fantastiskt! Here's a pretty aerial image of the park for you. The outline of the #18thCentury manor house is also still visible in the park. The second photo is Rosavilla, the only surviving building from Tersmeden's time. Moved to a new location in the 80s, it's now the restaurant of a golf club!

Got to go to lovely Louhisaari Manor yesterday to help train museum guides. Gave a lecture & dressing up demonstration of Empire-era fashion (roughly 1790-1820). How wonderful it as to educate and inspire people about a topic I love so much! Wore my lovely hand-stitched white cotton dress ❤️

Allow me to introduce you to some more timeline cleansing gorgeousness! This beauty also dates from the #18thCentury and was very likely a #QuiltedPetticoat before it was turned into a bedspread. The details shows the fabulous embroidered border, which would've gone all the way around the hem.

Submitted the 1st draft of my #PhD summary earlier this month & had my feedback chat with supervisors yesterday. I don't suck! I'm doing well! What I wrote was excellent for a 1st draft! Am quite chuffed ☺️ I will finish this bloody PhD eventually. Enjoy this #18thCentury embroidery in celebration!

Rakkaudella ja raivolla, kaikkien naisten puolesta.

With love and with rage, for all women.
