Hi Kathleen,
I have cartridge pleated the bottom and then i have sewed all the pleats
together like a star.
You are right that some have a little covered cirkle in the bottom, and i still have a lot to learn in making them like the old ones. I have found a
book on Amazon com that has some examples and i want that book.
Also i have to find out how to make renaissance purses two, because i want
to make Elizabethan two.
Thanks for all your positive feed backs, i always feels good when people
like what i do.
I also got a permission order to make a belt pouch from late 1500 with a family crest with 3 lions in silver, this is something i will start to make
after the dress i make has finished.
Does anyone have any links to late 1500 belt pouches?
I would like to see some examples...........

Bjarne
