*record needle scratch!*


Whoa! Stop the presses ... or sewing machines, or whatever. My honey needs a new pretty or two for the WA Midsummer Renaissance Faire (http://www.washingtonfaire.com/) so I'm dropping the needle on my effigy corset and picking up the scissors to make him a jerkin. Stay tuned for further developments!

While you wait, enjoy this awesome handsewn linen shirt! He looks pleased because I finally made something for him.





And here is the dashing man with his complete look: Handsewn linen shirt with simple blackwork embroidery on the cuffs and collar, green linen pants, and a heavy, soft, velvety cloak that used to be a bedspread or something.












A closer look at the cloak. It's very full, and when he starts walking, you can almost hear the Imperial March.

  1. The cape kicks ass, the silver attachment clasp is fetching, and nice detail on the linen shirt up at the collar.
