Busy busy busy busy

Necklace I made using freshwater pearls
and imperial jasper
I haven't done a post in sometime. Life has kept me jumping and otherwise occupied. So, with a moment of down time I can breath and maybe bring the world up to speed on my tasks.

I finished a slit neck tunic, an under tunic featuring a trapunto keyhole neck, extreme progress on a short sleeve purple gown, a new veil to go with the filet, a necklace, a hood, various mundane household soft goods, and a pair of fighter hose for my husband.

Whew!!

I have some garb to fine tune and some that needs a start. I need to fine tune the purple dress which includes a large amount of embroidery and metal work, start some tablet woven belts, begin the black heraldic dress for a friend, a long under dress in saffron yellow for me, and push on working up my husband's soft kit for heavy fighting.

Pant!!!

I plan on featuring the soft kit for my work shop follow along. Plus a look at doing easy braise and a look at hose.
