 This is a pair of bias cut fulled wool hosen that I made for my husband for Ymir 2010. Since it was supposed to be extremely cold I wanted to make sure he had something warm to wear. I made these using the same patten that I used for his linen hosen and they fit wonderfully. Next time though I will take my pictures in the morning before he has had a chance to nap so that the fit is more noticable. They are machine sewn with no visible machine stitching. I still have plans to make fully handsewn hosen for both of us but those have been moved further down the priority list. |

 I made two pair of bias cut linen hosen (chausses) for my husband in March 2009 for his trip to Gulf Wars. This was my first attempt at bias cut hosen, although I had wanted to try my hand at making them for years. They were so much easier than I had expected that I feel rather silly for not attempting them earlier. I draped a pattern for them directly on my husband's leg using muslin. I made up the first pair and tweaked the fit slightly for the second pair. Both came out very nicely and I hope soon to have pictures of my husband actually wearing them. :) They are machine sewn with no visible machine stitching. I have plans to make fully handsewn hosen for both of us this fall/winter. |

 Here you can see my red linen short sleeved kirtle. I originally made this gown so that I would have something comfortable and easy that I could come off the rapier field and change into quickly for court while I was baroness. This kirtle fit the bill perfectly. It's made using my gothic fitted gown pattern and is completely self supporting. It is machine sewn but completely hand finshed. The skirt is cut full and hangs wonderfully and since the gown is made of linen it's extremely cool and comfortable. In fact I loved it so much I have one cut out in green linen that's just waiting to get sewn together!

 I made this red wool hood for my husband in February 2008. It was made for Ymir, one of our local Baronial events that is notorious for cold and often unpredictable weather. It's made of fulled red wool and sewn together with silk thread. While all the seams are machine sewn they were all flat felled by hand to strengthen the garment and give them a period finish. There is no visible machine stitching and the hem was finished with oak leaf dags. |

 I made this surcoat for my Husband to wear for a Pas d' armes that the Canton of Elvegast hosted in November 2006, the same event that I made my GFG for. It's made of and fully lined in 7oz linen so that it would stand up to the wear and tear of SCA heavy combat. The fluers and ermine spots were machine embroidered and it was made to display the heraldry of his knight's household, House Fleur and Ermine. Although made to withstand the wear and tear of heavy fighting it is hand finished and there are no visible machine stitches except for the button holes and obvious machine embroidery. |
