Magdalena,
Thanks so much for all your help today. I know you didn't get to work on
anything you brought, but you did get a tremendous amount accomplished and
we all appreciate it.
Question: do you think I could do something like your Griffin-wear with the
purple silk as the final short tunic? I have several shades of purple linen
to work with. I could possibly do a nice fitted kirtle in the lightest
shade, a bliaut, tunic or cotehardie in a darker shade and then the short
tunic with the silk. Sound plausible? Would it fit at all in my period or
be considered general SCA wear? Any other suggestions?
I was mostly thinking this because if I make the bliaut with extra fabric to
get the gathers then a fitted jacket over that would appear bulky - don't
you think? Of course, I could always do the bliaut style without the
gathers or just do a simple kirtle with a jacket. What sounds most
period-like?
Again, thanks for your expertise. It looks like we're going to have to grow
some more costuming experts before you disappear. ;-)
