head empty just this fresco:

#Houppelandes and the snow will always mix for me #medieval costume #medieval #faye sews #my sca

dress is sleeve closures and trim away from being finished and my fighter is gonna have to (pretend) work so hard to recieve my favors cant wait to attach the piece we're cutting off with a dagger

#the decameron event #faye sews

Just two mercenaries trying their best to be courtly

also, the dress got finished enough

#Decameron day viii #faye sews #fully the skirt is not hemmed #the wool is just very well fulled

Another day, another patch going on the sleeve of a 4 year old underdress because I'd rather keep it alive than make a new one

#atp the sleeves are more patch than og fabric #but it's the only one i have thats appropriate for Rus #also adding length to it so that I don't have my whole shins out #faye sews

So one fun part about the next two projects (which'll be sewn with my non-dominant hand until my thumb stops hurting) is that I'll basically be comparing/contrasting two very similar garments from the holy roman empire

Both are dated around the mid-15th century, one found in the Tyrol region of Austria and the other more associated with the Nuremberg bathhouses, but both are generally discussed as supportive garments.

I want to compare the bathhouse dress against the support of the lengberg bra, my existing supportive shift, and bras, because while I see this discussed among the various options for supportive shifts, im not entirely sure it should be classified as one.

Materials arrive Wednesday

#faye sews #the underwear thistle strikes again

Three weeks out from Gulf Wars, and I've got some sewing to do: - finish the loose gown, so i don't have to wear the pourpoint - finish my Johanna Ferrour kirtle (closures, hems, and sleeves) - finish the red kirtle (sleeve buttons + hem) - Booty shorts + optional shirt would be nice to churn out another set of hose too, but thats gonna be a bonus project
