Pennsic sewing....
Jul. 19th, 2007 04:23 pmEveryone else listing their madness so I'll chime in with my next to impossible list of pre-pennsic planning.
Projects to do-
1)hem the new under tunic Dame Olwen the Odd made for me. DONE!
2)take the hood off of my old wool cloak and put quilt binding on the edge instead.
This wool cloak is SO OLD it's nearly twice as old as my son but it's in great shape except for a bit of cosmetic work. It needs a new cloak clasp/penanular broach that I hope to purchase at Pennsic.
3)hem the sleeves of a tunic I made for The Knight that I will bring for me as a spare. DONE!
4)take in a blue tube dress that is just way too wide. (seemed like a good idea at the time.) DELETING
I've got other bits and bobs I want to make instead.
5)finish pearling the edge of a silk veil. DONE!
6)stain & seal my oak chair. Materials are all bought I just need to do it. DONE!
UPDATE* 7)Hem vigil gown to wear as a nice under dress for my blue viking or my black viking. DONE!
Maybe I might try to-
1)make another plain linen veil. DONE!
2)paint baronial arms on a pilgrim bag I have.
3)make one more colored under dress to have a spare to change out with other over tunics.
4)make one white linen viking coif DONE!
5)make one hood
5)make one simple over gown.
UPDATE* with Jeanmaire's and Mari's help I was able to complete a silk wimple also! Yea!!
There we go! I've already started to pack things in the truck. I've also started to pack garb in the bin as I get it ready. Tonight will see me working on the bins that will carry my other camping gear and starting the last minute shopping list.
And I'm not leaving until August 4th at O-dark thirty in the morning.
