Re: The Active Laurel

Yes, the curvy border was an entwined oak branch design from a OA chasuble of the 14th century. I really liked the little acorns and oak leaves that were attached to it. Oh well. I like this border too though. I piddled with rulers and compasses this morning to get the spacing how I wanted it. Fortunately all my drawing will be covered with silk or gold work.

I'm not seeing getting it done in time for display at crown but you never know. It won't be for TA as the highlighted time period will not be the corresponding one. This is piece is 1235 and TA will be 1250-1492. So goes the life of an artisan! :-)
