You see I bought this fantabulous fake fur today, thick and natural looking. But there was "only" 2,6 metres of it and I want to make cover for our bed too. That would take 2 metres. Maybe I'll try to get some slightly thinner and darker fake fur for the tudor sleeves. Maybe. I also bought more wool. They didn't have more of the black I bought to Sarah but I got some dark blue and grey for mundane skirts and some textured pink-red wool to make a mundane evening dress that I can wear on formal occasions if I want something sexier than my folk costume ;)
And I found this wonderful thin red wool in very narrow herringbone twill that would be perfect for early period garb. It was 159 kr/m, which is roughly 22$, so it wasn't extraordinarily cheap, but not expensive either. But alas, I'm out of money already this month.
Now Julia, who is going to help me with my edwardian clothes rings on the doorbell.
