Re: [h-cost] 15th Century pleated gown

2014-05-08 Thread Wicked Frau
I haven't made it, but from looking at it, I think it presumes you have
made the doublet first, and are altering the pattern to create the gown.
The slashing is on the pattern, not the cloth.

I can see where it would be confusing.

 Has anyone here made the 15th century pleated gown using the pattern on
 page 154 of The Medieval Tailor's Assistant? I'm confused about the slash
 lines - why does it need cutting and what do you do once its been cut?
 Many thanks,
 Aylwen

[h-cost] Brim wire!

2014-05-08 Thread Marjorie Wilser
I’m looking for brim wire and not having a whole lotta luck.

Sources, anybody? The best I can find so far is Farthingales in Canada…. slower 
and with duty. I’m in the US. A millinery company wants a minimum order of $76— 
their “low” price. Right.

I looked for Janet Wilson Anderson’s Raiments/ AlterYears but can’t find a 
presence on the web??

I need 3 yd minimum, with crimpers/joiners for ends.

Thanks, List!

I, too, have had luck with Leko. They do have a minimum order but it isn't as 
high as $76, IIRC.
