Our Elizabeth wanted to be Saint Catherine of Genoa for All Saints Day.
St. Catherine of Genoa was a new saint to me, and when we read about her life, Elizabeth chose her as the saint she wanted to model this year. 
(Caterina Fieschi Adorno, born Genoa 1447 – 15 September 1510) is an Italian Roman Catholic saint and mystic, admired for her work among the sick and the poor.

I will be posting more Costumes:
