Things to sew

My current sewing list:
1. A green 12th c dress with hanging sleeves for Valeria. I'm working on it and it should be finished by the 17th of July.
2. A rather loose version of a Herjolfsnes gown with nursing slits in the front-side seams from the maroon wool. It would be nice if I had it the 17th, but it's not necessary since I have the lilac 12th c dress.
3. A linen tunic for Maja to wear to the same market as the above dresses. The one I had made was way too short.
4. A coif for Maja, so she won't have to wear her modern cap (that looks like a coif, but is made of knitted fabric).
If we go to Visby (unlikely, but not totally ruled out):
1. Linen shifts for Vendela and Valeria.They have one each for everyday wear and will need another one.
2. Warmer dresses for V and V. I have ten metres lovely light blue wool that will be used for this. Probably it will be 11th-12th c cottes with moderate hanging sleeves and rectangular cut with gores in the sides, back and front.
3. At least two linen tunics and two woollen tunics, one thinner and one thicker, for Maja. And a wool cap.
4. Fixing the corners of the tent. I might change the tent roof totally, so that it isn't square, but a bit more rounded. But then I need more fabric. Have to ask dad if there is more so I can buy some extra metres.
5. A silk bliaut to wear at court and tournament.
The last two might change place in the priority list. I can use the tent as it is and sewing tents is hard and boring work, while making a silk bliaut should be fun.
