I was going to do a proper dress diary this time but it didn't quite work out. Got the Cotehardie and Sideless Surcoat made and wore it to the Tavern Feast - didn't come out too bad for a first attempt! The fit was okay but probably could be tailored a bit more.
I'm working on a mundane skirt at the moment that I need for this weekend. Haven't done any today as I have been in bed sick!
Will try and get photos up here soon of the completed project.........

Banner making project
Well, the cotehardie hasn't progressed any - no time! I'm on holidays next week so I'm going to get it done then. Definately! I have to, I want to wear it to the tavern night on Saturday 14th. Nothing like a deadline to get you moving!
I've been working on a banner for Wolfstanus - his device is in the process of registration so it should be fine. Francesca kindly showed me how to do blanket stitch and it's not too bad for a first attempt if I do say so myself! It has been quite relaxing sewing in front of the TV!
The banner isn't complete yet - I need to do the detailing in gold fabric paint on the wyvern, sew on a backing and tabs on the top for hanging. I then need to get T to make me some banner stands! Then it's off to make one for C too.
