Awhile back I found a web page that had instructions for making hairnets. I mean by netting them (Like you would a fish net) not by crocheting. Now, of...
I managed to make Jacob a Polish zupan to wear to Birka. The man from the Polish Hussar Supply booth was very complimentary. Since I did not have a pattern I...
I bought one at Birka. Anyone know how to use it? I'm going to try to figure it out myself from internet instructions, so we'll see how it goes! Sara...
I think I posted the link to making the snood on the link list (on this listserv) - I'll double check. Bring your lucet to dance practice and I'll show you if...

Hi, I've been trying to research what to wear to an SCA event for belly dancing. These two things seem to be mutually exclusive garb-wise. I've read that...
Lebanese belly dance. I think it would be period for that culture - but I have no references to back up that thought. What about courtesans from that area of...
Ello, I have a linen tunic for myself and I will be making Heidi a linen surcoat to go with the cream undergarment she is wearing in the photo. Mathius...
Sounds great. I found one layer extremely hot last year at GNEW, it was so humid. What did you make your tunic out of - the one in the picture? From the...
