Medieval Threads: Breast Bag thoughts
http://medievalthreads.blogspot.com/2015/05/breast-bag-thoughts.html
Handouts and Handy Tricks. Thursday, May 7, 2015. And another on modern undies. To collect images and helpful links, rather than overburdening this page. 1 It appears that "lifted and separated" was the the ideal boob shape for most of the period I am interested in. This really cannot be accomplished with a fitted gown*, which gives you more of a mono-boob shape. Furthermore there is plenty of textual evidence. For breast-shaping garments (and surgery!

Medieval Threads: Finished Queen's Shawl
http://medievalthreads.blogspot.com/2014/02/finished-queens-shawl.html
Handouts and Handy Tricks. Monday, February 10, 2014. Hurray for a finished project! I've been running through my list of Things To Do and getting a bit freaked out this week or so (ok, more than a bit freaked out, more like I look at the list and run away and hide) so it's super nice to have a Very Big Thing Indeed crossed off. And with time to spare even! I decided to buckle down this weekend and marathon watched Season 3 of Downton Abbey and the Olympics while I got it done. Wow That is lovely! A mino...

Medieval Threads: April 2015
http://medievalthreads.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Handouts and Handy Tricks. Wednesday, April 29, 2015. We had a local event a couple of weeks ago at which my household decided to make a nice period lunch. My contribution was a chicken pie, based on what I had (chicken, bacon and leeks) and several recipes I found at Medieval Cookery. In true period style, I utterly failed to keep track of measurements but here is a pithy recipe for what I came up with. It was really tasty, even cold, and rather like a quiche.

Medieval Threads: January 2014
http://medievalthreads.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Handouts and Handy Tricks. Sunday, January 19, 2014. Shawl for a Queen. Anyway, the upshot of all of this is it's taken me longer to get started on the shawl project than I had planned. But I finally got the Perugia towel. Off my loom, and have started doing the sampling for the shawl on my new table loom! Yay for awesome Christmas presents that make sampling possible! Finished Faux-rugia towel, finally. It's off the loom, washed, and I am actually pretty happy with how it turned out. Yay! 3 - For whatev...

Medieval Threads: May 2015
http://medievalthreads.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Handouts and Handy Tricks. Sunday, May 17, 2015. Or, this Oda Cannot Draw a Straight Line. Yesterday I spend the afternoon with a couple of SCA friends (my former peer and her husband) working on a new silk banner. To be strictly correct, it's currently my ONLY silk banner, they were working on replacing/augmenting their current silk banners. Always nice to have someone who knows what they are doing when you doing something like this for the first time! The motto translates as Shadows Pass, Light Remains.

Medieval Threads: November 2013
http://medievalthreads.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Handouts and Handy Tricks. Thursday, November 28, 2013. Following up on my last post, I've finished setting up the warp weighted loom that has now taken over a not insignificant portion of my living room and have actually successfully woven a whole inch of leg wrap! Monday, November 25, 2013. Warping the Warp Weighted Loom. I got a warp weighted loom for my birthday (yay! I do have to say, the 5 inch wide warp looks pretty silly on the 4 foot wide loom, but what are you gonna do? View my complete profile.
