Pictures!

[atherleisure]

I finally took pictures of the Tudor knitted sleeves and early 17th century petticoat I made earlier this year. I think the sleeves would usually be worn with a kirtle that has the same fabric for bodice and skirt, but I don't know that for sure. They should also have been pinned a little closer to the end of the tab and thereby closer to the neck edge of the shoulder straps of the petticoat. I'm just taking it as a win that I got pictures.







Here's the list of things that I needed to post as of three weeks ago. I've made progress.
- Tudor knit sleeves
- 1920's navy voile dress with Egyptian-inspired embroidery
- 1910's evening dress
- 1930's Benedictine tunic
- Early 17th century dark brown flannel petticoat with upperbodies

I am also very interested in more info on the knitting Tudor sleeves.

Unfortunately, all I've got is a Ravelry page (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/womans-16th-century-sleeves) and a couple of preview pages from a book that hasn't been published yet. Supposedly The Typical Tudor will be out by October, but we'll see if the date gets pushed back again.
