My embroidered 13th century gown is finished

[frualeydis]

And this evening I will cut out Mån's matching gown. Wool, embroidered with cotton - it was impossible for me to get hold of a suitable silk yarn within resonable time. I comfort myself with the fact that there was cotton in Europe in the Middle Ages, though not very common.




I will make a page about it with documentation and more photos in my costume blog later. I've written about my striped and lined veil there previously.
