Out of curiosity and basically ignorance on this style of embroidery, what
is the earliest documentable date redwork was used on garments? It is

Thanks to everyone for bringing this to the list.

I am no expert on this field, but my understanding is that this is an
example of Blackwork style of embroidery, only done in a monochrome red
thread instead of black.
And I intend on making those sleeves, and maybe the matching partlet as
well. I just have other projects to do first, so those are in my "someday" box.
