My exploration (and attempts at reconstruction) of Early- through Late-Medieval purses, pouches, and bags with a focus on embroidery and other methods of surface decoration. As you have probably assumed, I've been rather busy this semester. I've noticed that my number of "followers" has steadily increased in spite of my inactivity; I promise, more content is on the way! Until then, I hope everyone is well, and finds joy in their own hobbies, interests, and pursuits! Posted by Tristán Z. Over my dead "car...

My exploration (and attempts at reconstruction) of Early- through Late-Medieval purses, pouches, and bags with a focus on embroidery and other methods of surface decoration. A little bit of progress. The blue latticework purse, at 91 hrs 40 minutes:. One of the other reasons progress has been slow is due to this little side-project: I'd decided that, after my class on German counted work, I should really have some examples that use the 2/1 stitch slope (sometimes referred to as Gobelin stitch). The p...

http://medievalpurses.blogspot.com/2010/02/yes-still-here.html
My exploration (and attempts at reconstruction) of Early- through Late-Medieval purses, pouches, and bags with a focus on embroidery and other methods of surface decoration. Yes, still here! I author a few blogs, and posting is fairly infrequent on all of them. However, I always feel a bit guilty about going quiet on this. A few things for today's post:. 8226; I've made some progress on the latticework purse, but haven't taken any pictures recently. I'll get around to that before the week is out. 8226; I...

My exploration (and attempts at reconstruction) of Early- through Late-Medieval purses, pouches, and bags with a focus on embroidery and other methods of surface decoration. Blog hiatus over / Gambeson. My deepest apologies to all of my readers and followers; it's been over a year since I've posted anything of substance here. School, work, and of course my ever-increasing involvement in historical European martial arts (shameless plug: NY Historical Fencing Association. I have to give a great deal of cre...

http://medievalpurses.blogspot.com/2013/01/progress-all-around.html
My exploration (and attempts at reconstruction) of Early- through Late-Medieval purses, pouches, and bags with a focus on embroidery and other methods of surface decoration. So it appears that long swaths of time between posts are just going to have to be the norm. But, dear readers, I have been making progress (albeit slowly) on a few things:. First, the blue lattice-work purse, the embroidery portion of which I had finished late in August of 2010 (post here. Post I think this will be the last bit of Ge...

My exploration (and attempts at reconstruction) of Early- through Late-Medieval purses, pouches, and bags with a focus on embroidery and other methods of surface decoration. Feel awkward by my lack of clothing/accoutrement that meet this high standard that I'd prefer to achieve). I am, however, very fortunate to have a small group of amazing researchers and artisans in my local group who are a constant inspiration, even though their own times/places of interest is far removed from my own. So when said sm...

Taschen: Latticework purse progress: 116 hrs
http://medievalpurses.blogspot.com/2010/08/latticework-purse-progress-116-hrs.html
My exploration (and attempts at reconstruction) of Early- through Late-Medieval purses, pouches, and bags with a focus on embroidery and other methods of surface decoration. Latticework purse progress: 116 hrs. No pictures today, just a quick update. I'm getting to the end of the surface embroidery; I'm guessing maybe 6 to 8 more hours to go on that. And then of course the side-stitching, and all the little tassels and other bits and pieces. Posted by Tristán Z. Cant wait to see photos! 23 August, 2010.
