Back from Double Wars

[frualeydis]

 I'm back from Double Wars and I had a wonderful time. We came home last night and since then we have been busy unpacking, mending torn clothes, etc, so Ihaven't got the energy to write about it.  I have, however, posted lots of photos over at my costuming blog, here.

When unpacking I also went through some old clothes and tried them on. This one is from 1998.

True. I had the opportunity to fondle some 15th century silk velvet a couple of years ago and while it was soft as a kitten's belly it looked much like cotton velvet.
My biggest historial problem would be that I don't know how much velvet was used for clothing in the 2nd half of the 14th century.

Me neither... and it would probably differ from region-to-region and country-to-country too
