The Modern Maker - A Felt Cloak Back of the collar The couching and embroidery is all being done in wool. It was a good color and somehow felt correct for this piece. I suspect for wealthier folks, the embroidery would have been made up in silk. On the main body, I have used a couching technique with two strands of the wool and the couching stitches themselves in the same wool. On the collar, the satin stitch for the leaves is worked in a single strand of the wool while the heavy line of the border is four strands of the wool that have been re-spun and plied to create a heavier cord. In retrospect, I absolutely should have used this re-spinning technique for the main body. It looks beautiful. But alas, I didn't think of it until after the body was done and there isn't time to go back and re-work it. I am saving the embroidery of the hood for last since I really want to have all my design choices made and wanted to have my hands "tuned" to the proper stitching. The embroidery on the hood is quite elaborate in the surviving piece. I'm pushing myself to complete this project because its standing in the way of so many others. I'm glad its almost done though. Just so everyone knows what's going on with this book, the projected release date is October 31st 2017. I'm working VERY hard to make sure that date is maintained. Be well, thank you for reading and as always, HAPPY STITCHING!! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590005188752-FZJN76BHDSMWFGT4STLB/Screen%2BShot%2B2017-08-20%2Bat%2B9.01.07%2BAM.png Blog - The Modern Maker - A Felt Cloak https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590005435793-Z86EUW1F3PMY5EKMYB8W/20882509_1423827211032292_3433817090598182086_n.jpg Blog - The Modern Maker - A Felt Cloak Detail of the Collar https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590005310837-CA5VGLM9XJNZQYEFSPIM/a10c19a46e7119b08002c9ceb0300847--medieval-embroidery-renaissance-clothing.jpg Blog - The Modern Maker - A Felt Cloak Closeup detail of the front of the hood https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590005275126-0T9MII6M3SMYL0U6C1TJ/630dd10716b9b93fa2b907fffea4c8d0--historical-clothing-pilgrims.jpg Blog - The Modern Maker - A Felt Cloak Pilgrimage cloak of Stephan Praun III, Germanisches Nationalmuseum--Nuremberg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590005220171-6WX8UI8RI2ZO1TABG793/Screen%2BShot%2B2017-08-20%2Bat%2B9.34.25%2BAM.png Blog - The Modern Maker - A Felt Cloak Here is the draft I used to make my cloak.

In this image, it only shows the felled pass of the seam. After the photo was taken, I picked stitched along the seam exactly the same way as I did the shoulder. Once the body was assembled, I attached the skirts to the waist. I cannot believe that all of this work is only about 6 hours total. And even then, I'm stitching at a leisurely pace of about 20 to 30 stitches per minute. My next steps are: • Make up the sleeves • Stitch up the lining • Install the lining and trim away excess seam allowance on the bound edges • Add silk facing to the buttonhole side •Stitch the buttonholes • Add the peascod belly-piece...JUST the belly piece in this instance, the peascod is achieved simply by adding a small padded bit at center front. It is similar in shape to those hardened belly pieces that were all the rage in 1620s Europe, except it is stuffed and shaped. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1626520433880-H02LTEGMB4MLNL1ZNA1N/IMG_1414.JPG Pattern Manual Blog - The Moroni Doublet Mockup - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1626520870564-MMMPNSDI0PFAOHUPSC1U/IMG_1383.JPG Pattern Manual Blog - The Moroni Doublet Mockup - Make it stand out The neckline of the body is clipped well to allow the seam allowance to lie flat. In a move that is not my norm, I stitched the shoulder seams next, carefully turning and pressing the seam allowance for the back and making sure to use my iron to stretch the shoulder edge of the front for a good contour over the clavicle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1626520710468-J65CFC5W71BE4U4RQQT8/IMG_1374.JPG Pattern Manual Blog - The Moroni Doublet Mockup - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1626521026243-ZDZDJN4FF2KVC3QHVGE9/IMG_1402.JPG Pattern Manual Blog - The Moroni Doublet Mockup - Make it stand out The second pass on the shoulder seam is a small pick stitch, worked about 3/16" (4mm) from the fell-stitched edge. This is both decorative and supportive. On a side note, I visited the optometrist last week and was told the RIGHT power of reading glasses to wear while working and suddenly my stitches more precise and even than they've ever been. Yay science! When the shoulder/neck seams are complete, I turn my attention to the side back seams. Here, I am using a scrap piece of fabric, about 11/4" (3.2cm) wide. The scraps I'm using were cut off the bottom of the doublet skirts, which I made too wide. They're curved, so I used my iron to forcibly straighten them and then fold them in half. Once straightened, you'd never know how curved they were in the beginning. These strips are basted in place on the fronts, carefully basting at the seam allowance width. The seam allowance is then turned and the little flange of the inserted strip is left to extend out from the seam. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1626520908353-0CGFMJVWHUI02VBEGN25/IMG_1390.JPG Pattern Manual Blog - The Moroni Doublet Mockup - Make it stand out The first pass of the shoulder seam involves laying the back in place against a basting line that denotes the seam allowance width. Once basted in place, a simple felling stitch is used to secure it in place along the edge. You can see the ripples on the back shoulder from the easing. The back shoulder is cut a little longer than the front to force the stitcher to ease it in. This easing creates a hollow for the Trapezius muscle and allows the garment to flow better over the surface of the body in that area. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1626520616671-NEV6UY60YOJS06SZXCWA/IMG_1352.jpg Pattern Manual Blog -

Even if it’s only in your head, the first step in creating anything to wear is to take some time to really contemplate your design. If you can sketch, put it down on paper so you can really think through the elements that make up your vision. Even if you don’t draw well yet, just making the effort to put some ideas on paper will help solidify your direction. In this section, we will teach you how to think clearly about your design, decide on the materials, draw out the vision or at least write down a list of distinct details and then, how to set sail on the journey to completion. https://www.themodernmaker.co/running-stitch daily 0.75 2020-05-11 https://www.themodernmaker.co/historical-design-development daily 0.75 2020-07-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1588518265797-8J0NTV02OWARCMWGQOP7/DSC_0061.JPG Design Development - It all begins with a design.

If you’ve never made this garment or object before, chances are, your first attempt will have flaws and issues that need to be corrected. This is not a reflection, necessarily, of your skill level, but it is a reality that must be accepted and dealt with. Every new object will have different qualities, either because of the materials, the process, or even changes in how the maker sees what they need to do. This is the moment when you make the first, full-size version of your vision. In the world of costume and fashion, this stage is often made of muslin/calico and is meant to be tossed aside once the sampling process is complete. However, I have always felt that this is a waste of time and energy. These days, when I make a mockup, I make it complete with linings, trims, hardware, buttons and more. I try to find fast, inexpensive ways to make the object as close to the “real” one as possible so that I have a true and full understanding of how all the dynamics work. That means how the closures fasten, that means finding out whether it works when worn over other layers. Is it mobile enough? How does it drape? I ask all of these questions after I’ve made the mockup. I am, quite often, fitting people via video and not in person so I direct an individual who is “on location” with the client to pin in very specific ways. Once pinned, the garment/s are sent back to me and I analyze the pins, alter the pattern accordingly and make the final garment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590766388346-X6G1N2421GTU84AWJX0X/IMG_4259.jpeg Design Development Working in this manner creates several benefits. First, I typically only have to sample the garment one time. I get all the information that I need in one fitting. The second benefit is that I have a completed garment that I can use for other clients who are a similar shape/size and fit them with the mockup. Then I can take another pattern and customize it for the new client if possible. It is somewhat rare that this actually happens, however, and most often I just retain the mockup garment or suit for a while and then sell it off for a low price to recoup the cost of materials. The time is irrelevant in this calculation since the original client has already paid for my time to create a custom suit. It just adds another layer of revenue that is beneficial. For the people buying the lower-cost mockups for their own use, it becomes a luxury to be able to have something made well, that is affordable. Now, if you’re not selling garments like I do, you can make your own choices. Donate them to a community theater or a school…make sure to get a receipt for tax purposes. In the photo to the left, you can see that I’ve gone into real fabric for the main suit in this instance since I knew the client’s body and was limited on time. I was also confident that I could make necessary alterations easily, should anything have needed to change. But since I’d not made an over-garment for the client before, I chose to make the mockup in a muslin/calico material so that I was risking very little expense. The over-garment required a lot of yardage as well, and since it was not an inexpensive material, I wanted to be sure that I chose the cautious route. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1594210176732-HW4SSHVAHWV9AOHFJMTA/441C9ACF-F652-4B21-80AD-B64DCD20AC96_1_105_c.jpg Design Development - Make the Final Garment This is it…you’ve done your research, consulted with your inner self or your client about what is desired. You’ve made the pattern and the mock-up and you’re ready to get going. Many people balk at this stage. They often have expensive textile and they suddenly get worried that they’ll make mistakes. But don’t worry! This is why we go through all of those other steps first! There is time spent on learning what is needed. as you have done your stitch samples, you know what the fabric needs in terms of stiffness, stitches, and ironwork. Now you have to trust yourself and trust that you’ve done your due diligence in working through the doubt. Don’t skimp on technique. This is a pitfall of many, many costumers — especially hobbyists. The process of designing and making an outfit can be long and involved and sometimes, just the opposite of doubt, the costumer gets excited and rushes forward without taking the time to do things the proper way. Steps and processes are skipped in favor of getting to the finish line as fast as possible. But you’ve come this far…why take shortcuts now? Work efficiently and patiently and you will end up with a stunning result. You CAN do this and do it well. You just have to allow yourself the space to learn. Allow the time to do things carefully. You’ll get faster the more you practice, but if you’re a beginner, whether in modern or historical clothing, you have to be kind to yourself and know that mastery comes in its own time. Breathe deep and relish the journey, it’s worth it. https://www.themodernmaker.co/cartridge-pleats daily 0.75 2020-05-06 https://www.themodernmaker.co/whip-stitch daily 0.75 2020-05-11 https://www.themodernmaker.co/needle-lace daily 0.75 2020-07-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1594208980693-X2SWVP47WJX1IJGGPREY/Needle+lace+supplies+infographic.jpg Needle Lace - Starting your Journey with Needle Lace Starting a new craft while missing the most basic supplies is just asking for trouble and frustration.

Scroll work laces began to gain in popularity. It wasn’t long before the scrolling style evolved into deeper complexity itself and became Punta Rosalina, or Rose Point lace. Rose point lace was popular throughout the latter half of the 17th century and became highly prized for its fine, glorious craftsmanship. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1589025693675-NHBUH8C7KLUTM0J6B4N1/IMG_0645.jpeg Needle Lace - Punto in Aria Punto in Aria translates to stitch in the air. This is a name given to a specific type of early needle lace that was worked on a card or template of some kind, following certain orders of operation. In the early days, this lace would be made in pieces of fabric from which squares of threads had been removed. Into the empty square, the lace maker would work lines of stitching forming a grid and then work a variety of geometric or organic designs, depending on the era. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1589029123510-HHCORR6QXLE6XJ36SYPR/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-05-09%2Bat%2B8.26.21%2BAM.jpg Needle Lace - Rose Point (Punta Rosalina) As the lace continued to evolve, rose point lace emerged. At first, it was like the lace in this photo, scrolling vines with a ground of filling stitches. As it gained in popularity, the scale of the design diminished and eventually became Venetian Point lace. These styles of lace are not worked in the same order as the previous two. In this case, the outline of the vines is worked, or the outline of the more solid motifs is worked, then the ground filling is worked followed by the heavier solid work of the main motifs. This process is still used for needle lace today. https://www.themodernmaker.co/cooking daily 0.75 2020-08-14 https://www.themodernmaker.co/wrap-skirt-petticoat daily 0.75 2020-05-10 https://www.themodernmaker.co/baking daily 0.75 2020-05-10 https://www.themodernmaker.co/simple-gathers daily 0.75 2020-05-06 https://www.themodernmaker.co/bar-tacks daily 0.75 2020-05-06 https://www.themodernmaker.co/crochet-lace daily 0.75 2020-05-10 https://www.themodernmaker.co/the-victorian-method-of-garment-development daily 0.75 2020-04-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c5a514d65019f01a2cb2be5/1562685656804-Q9GBRN0NAL6DVNVQUCHS/20140301_Trade-151_0124-copy.jpg The Victorian Method of Garment development - Make it stand out.

a needle and thread. There are different styles and methods, but in the end, needle lace involves working macramé-like knots around a core of threads. sometimes the core is small, sometimes thick, but the end result is a network of shapes and lines that has endless…and I do mean endless variety. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1589024110059-UE892X4YDHPAL796TFUN/IMG_0727.jpeg Lace - Bobbin Lace (COMING SOON!) Bobbin lace was originally created as a faster way to make some of the patterns that were popular with needle lace. In just a few short decades, it had evolved into a textile art in its own right. The simple structure of a braid is elevated to a complexity that seems almost impossible. Yet the technique is simple. Bobbin lace requires more supplies than other laces, but it is worth the time and effort. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1589024280041-EH3EUENR6W6XPUC09ZU8/IMG_0038.jpg Lace - Crochet Lace (COMING SOON!) Crochet lace has a beauty that is all its own. From imitating other forms of lace, to its own unique styles, working with nothing more than a hook and thread, you can create incredibly beautiful pieces of lace. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590838296947-SWVBPTUFLI8EMPSX9ICX/IMG_0386.jpg Lace - Knitted Lace (COMING SOON!) Knitted lace is an art form like no other. With the simplicity of a “yarn-over” you can make holes appear in the fabric you’re making. With a little planning, or a good pattern, you can create works of art, like the one in this photo. The tradition of knitting with holes goes back, almost to the beginning of the craft. Come along on a journey to find your favorite kind of knitted lace. https://www.themodernmaker.co/hand-sewing daily 0.75 2021-12-30 https://www.themodernmaker.co/18th-century-resources daily 0.75 2020-05-10 https://www.themodernmaker.co/stays-15601630 daily 0.75 2020-05-10 https://www.themodernmaker.co/pinking daily 0.75 2020-05-10 https://www.themodernmaker.co/underclothes daily 0.75 2020-11-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590092441712-9EF5FKZRUXAW7I4ZYF1T/1600s+shirt+Bara+Notation.jpg Shirts and Shifts https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1605650395638-L1DHWLCHZOEB02MM56PW/Underbreeches+B.jpg Shirts and Shifts https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1605650955477-FMQAFJ8EIL2SYT5UF6WP/Modern+Reepsholt+Tunic.jpg Shirts and Shifts https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590323304200-M3HXCR806XM8Y1FIHESR/S-2020.jpg Shirts and Shifts A loose fitting modern tunic https://www.themodernmaker.co/draping daily 0.75 2020-05-28 https://www.themodernmaker.co/gowns daily 0.75 2020-06-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590149513060-8IUC0Z0S9H8ULSY0N9QJ/Balandra%CC%81n.jpg Gowns https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590837380136-VXDWHSROWOKZUM83SCBZ/TMM2+Ropa+Turca+Front.jpg Gowns https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590094066595-O02S0RKW734916MTT3HA/Sotanilla+Tranc%CC%A7ada.jpg Gowns https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590094792027-VUD4ZPG7BLBHWN29CEQH/TMM2+Herreruelo+comun.jpg Gowns https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590837350702-GXFWVJTONXCC72GJG5XC/TMM2+Ropa+Turca+Back.jpg Gowns https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590094653978-OG7CRO26F61T06T95D45/Mongil+de+Mujer.jpg Gowns https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590837400047-EWCFZQ0ZH4VXYE9WUHUK/TMM2+Ropa+Turca+Collar.jpg Gowns https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590837416586-XXJ0YKKZQ31FMH6UGK3L/Ropa+Hanging+Sleeve.jpg Gowns https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590149566542-LPT1BG3L2C0NVTH9B925/Galerilla.jpg Gowns https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590094868095-IDRYWISHCHW7LL2CSTWR/TMM2+Ferreruelo+Espan%CC%83ol.jpg Gowns https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1591614525332-7UQBI9AQNYPNZNEVMMNB/Late+18th+Century+Dressing+Gown.jpg Gowns https://www.themodernmaker.co/14th-century-resources daily 0.75 2020-07-07 https://www.themodernmaker.co/16th-century-resources daily 0.75 2020-07-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1588968624501-19E5N68E6X9LE7MICTG4/27336616_10213174801061811_5650943962240873593_n.jpg 16th & 17th century resources - Kostym.cz This fantastic Czech website has images of many, many extant garments, some of which you might not find anywhere else on the web.

Long before we at The Modern Maker ever thought to write books about historical dress, they were putting out some of the most inspirational and well-researched content available. With an emphasis on making, but with a strong academic bent, these two have helped countless enthusiasts make excellent and beautiful historical clothing. Their attention to details of material culture and class differences continue to invite people to think in more dynamic ways about what these clothes represent, how they should work and why they were worn. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1588970271788-KXJBEQWYX2AS66POO3AW/DSC_0181.JPG 16th & 17th century resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1588969293011-1YNTZ0L0ZXV6W2EEL79G/I_02_126.jpg 16th & 17th century resources https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1588969685124-3CBYBIHNRF3PD9L2RER8/2016JE0158_jpg_l.jpg 16th & 17th century resources https://www.themodernmaker.co/drafting daily 0.75 2020-12-04 https://www.themodernmaker.co/punto-in-aria daily 0.75 2020-11-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1594208980693-X2SWVP47WJX1IJGGPREY/Needle+lace+supplies+infographic.jpg Punto in Aria https://www.themodernmaker.co/over-skirt-15601640 daily 0.75 2020-09-29 https://www.themodernmaker.co/applying-fabric-trim daily 0.75 2020-05-10 https://www.themodernmaker.co/breeches-patterns daily 0.75 2020-11-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590092850272-2DBPXN2WV1W64IWDY0CL/SZTUKA+xi.jpg Breeches and Trousers From a 16th century Polish Manual https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590092797290-QYGCZGPQWUJN76I1G4DO/Modern+Maker+Hosen+A.jpg Breeches and Trousers 15th/16th Century Hose https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590092986278-TVDJ9U2XPPYRGSDOK7NL/Albayzeta+trousers.jpg Breeches and Trousers Fall-Front Breeches/leggings, From an 18th century Spanish Tailor’s Manual. ca. 1730 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590092925819-JGZD0X7K3EQZVXCMURQ1/Extant+Polish+Leggings.jpg Breeches and Trousers Based on a surviving pair, likely a 19th century Hussar Style. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1605651153004-0IPHJV6VSEXTHHJ1LBV8/Breeches+1600-1610+Conjectured+Shape.jpg Breeches and Trousers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1605650827797-G6N5QT3SQMOQYDN7G1S1/Round+Breeches+1620s.jpg Breeches and Trousers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590093461960-YF1Y79UIUIMUAZXV8GLJ/TMM3+Short+Canion+Hose.jpg Breeches and Trousers The lining for a pair of 16th century round hose with a long canion. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590093713853-J3X2KMS338L2A5FSL0WW/TMM2+Burguen+Anduxar+Calcon.jpg Breeches and Trousers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590093539387-6WDMTLDO1936ZR665N8D/Long+Canion.jpg Breeches and Trousers The canion draft for 16th century round hose. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590093771342-FT1721BF1E8QDOBHROH0/TMM2+Anduxar+Calcon+Frances.jpg Breeches and Trousers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590093374078-8D6GJ6RZN41KVCRSSFPS/Short+Canion+Hose+exterior.jpg Breeches and Trousers A 16th century-style draft for the exterior pieces of round hose with a long canion (lower cuff). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1591619003479-J796QN7Q8YQ7INCNCW5A/Drop+Crotch+short+Bias.jpg Breeches and Trousers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590149105519-4WGQZGBOUVC1HURGXHU1/Basic+early+20th+century+trouser+draft.jpg Breeches and Trousers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1591619081202-70OD1A1XCY20GXIUW7PV/Drop+Crotch+short+Regular.jpg Breeches and Trousers https://www.themodernmaker.co/scrolling-laces daily 0.75 2020-05-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1589027356622-LMWYZ35OXZPNA6G7WWU9/IMG_8549.JPG Scrolling Laces - Getting Started The pattern is prepared in much the same way as for punto in aria. the main difference is the manner in which the tacking stitches are used. Instead of tacks which are perpendicular to the line of working, The needle making the tack stitches comes up from the back of the card, passes over the foundation thread and then goes back through the same hole. The structure is the same as what a sewing machine makes. It is called a “lock stitch.” This enables the foundations to be laid with more solidity and allows for more organic perimeters around the shapes while still maintaining a secure position. Unlike punto in aria, there is a ring of foundation thread that follows the outlines of the shapes as they are worked. The final line of buttonhole stitches goes around the whole shape to smooth and tidy the form. https://www.themodernmaker.co/20th-century-resources daily 0.75 2020-05-08 https://www.themodernmaker.co/food-resources daily 0.75 2020-05-08 https://www.themodernmaker.co/jackets daily 0.75 2023-09-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590149441246-0C96D1LS72WGE9OUYO8H/Anonimo+Jubon+de+Hombre.jpg Jackets and Waistcoats This manual was brought to my attention by Francisco Martinez Botella https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/017a39ce-ed36-4e5c-872d-9e72aeaf6b5d/Screenshot+2023-09-22+at+8.05.02+AM.png Jackets and Waistcoats - Make it stand out Cottage Core Waistcoat/Vest — Proportionate Draft — 21st Century https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590087975571-D56N76IMIQI0F38JUQOR/Screen+Shot+2020-05-21+at+9.50.22+AM.png Jackets and Waistcoats https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590088213511-HUPLTXN9Y3YNIWPWLTW2/Screen+Shot+2020-05-21+at+9.52.16+AM.png Jackets and Waistcoats https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590149188143-BS7LRBOGO9AO62J55C90/Juan+De+Alcega+Doublet.jpg Jackets and Waistcoats https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1591887318944-VIU8CMVD7PQFWR0D4KZ3/Jubon+con+Faldilla+Redonda.jpg Jackets and Waistcoats https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590092234620-NTWQ13JLCEK886VMTVCX/Screen+Shot+2020-05-21+at+4.17.00+PM.png Jackets and Waistcoats https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590150043375-W911AY3WQZN2XF8LCU7E/Cerlical+Soutane.jpg Jackets and Waistcoats https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590149765021-D7V6WF3HBRSODJ7IHMVV/Peplum+jacket.jpg Jackets and Waistcoats https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590149370204-CA3ZRRUZWGJUAXDKGR8D/Ropilla+de+Freyle.jpg Jackets and Waistcoats https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590088668533-E1L9WF4JBHROJEWAL8G1/Screen+Shot+2020-05-21+at+3.17.36+PM.png Jackets and Waistcoats https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1594651011409-EE3X11YZJV7GTGTAQVWC/1810s+Man%27s+Waistcoat+.jpg Jackets and Waistcoats https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590088514714-T1N3HDYCAEYWPNN43YYI/Screen+Shot+2020-05-21+at+3.14.07+PM.png Jackets and Waistcoats https://www.themodernmaker.co/bara-system-pattern-archive daily 0.75 2020-07-13 https://www.themodernmaker.co/making-oneself daily 0.75 2020-05-30 https://www.themodernmaker.co/traditional-costume-resources daily 0.75 2020-05-08 https://www.themodernmaker.co/rose-point-lace daily 0.75 2020-05-09 https://www.themodernmaker.co/whats-new-1 daily 1.0 2025-03-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590596020282-RNCDW3TJ3YMJAA52IIIP/IMG_4425.jpeg Home - What will you make today?

The pattern diagram shown to left is for a pair of breeches that will serve from 1590 all the way through to the 1640s. Of course, decoration and styling may shift, so make sure you know the details that are right for you. This pattern is made with a very low crotch depth which is great for wearing, but you’re planning on working in these breeches or using them for combat, you will want to raise the crotch level to H-tii or even shorter to H-t. This can be easily adjusted during the toile and fitting stage of the work. The depth of the crotch depends greatly on your styling as well. If you’re really going for a dramatic historical look, you might need to wear these with a hip roll which requires that the crotch be quite low to account for the extra take-up. If you’re using a softer, less dramatic line, you will need to shorten the crotch length. Whatever you choose, making a mock-up in an inexpensive fabric with a similar weight to the final layers will answer all the questions you need. Be aware that the pattern, as shown contains the height of the waistband. Depending on the style you’re making, you may wish to remove the waistband height of around ii-dedo. In historical examples, linings are made to extend over the waistband seam all the way to the top. This reduces bulk and makes them much easier and more comfortable to wear.

The breeches in this video are a slightly different style of Venetians, but the principles of drafting are similar. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1589368411278-EPGZYGRLH84N4J0DJX55/Anduxar+Breeches+layout.jpg Venetians Construction A period-style layout for breeches.

This should be strong but needn't go through all layers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493460430-LOMXHB7YBGTPX38X629E/IMG_2249.jpg Venetians Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493551394-FQ9SINXUFSTGSXJJ33GN/IMG_2263.jpg Venetians Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493526182-ZU55WGAZ189GNF6HQKX9/IMG_2270.jpg Venetians Construction Begin making the hip pad, if you're using an internal structure like this. I use a 14" (35.5cm) wide strip of dense, heavy cloth that is about 1.5 times the waist measurement. It is filled with wool or cotton wadding. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493537753-MQIDW8T72YZ5HD2PKYPQ/IMG_2280.jpg Venetians Construction Folded almost in half, but not quite. Leave a single layer exposed for sewing to the waist. We use a single layer here to avoid thickening the waist area any more than is strictly necessary https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493571279-F0FCMQ7R6AX7ST7TNH7D/IMG_2285.jpg Venetians Construction Once folded, it is sewn closed like this. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493656182-56WGDJZ3UU8T9I8AZGS1/IMG_2291.jpg Venetians Construction Next, we use pad stitching to shape the pad. Beginning at the top, stitches should be close together and tight. We are aiming to flatten the area quite a bit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493710365-RW33DE7Q42TQUC2OM7PE/IMG_2297.jpg Venetians Construction The second line of pad stitches should be larger and looser to allow the pad to begin taking on a teardrop cross section. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493649231-9BVNSGW33HLHQT9E91T6/IMG_2307.jpg Venetians Construction The third line of stitching should be even larger and looser than the second. Again, the goal is to secure the wadding to prevent it from shifting but also to create the teardrop cross section which will give the breeches the classic rounded shape at the top https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493642372-X4OOBBCMIG01KVDGOJCP/IMG_2329.jpg Venetians Construction Beginning about 6" (15.2cm) from the fronts, line up and stitch the pad into the lining with the single layer pleating onto the waist seam. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493699306-L36P4N2XERZYMVUMHR5M/IMG_2334.jpg Venetians Construction Secure with a back stitch. This stitch need not be small and perfect, but strong and fast. It does not need to go through all layers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493651500-KNGWVM8XT1X4PSCAIFRZ/IMG_2344.jpg Venetians Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493751292-2NQRFJ04N1I4IV34WDRB/IMG_2349.jpg Venetians Construction The completed pad, in place. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493740314-RF2AD6N7D5PVXTZL6YES/IMG_2363.jpg Venetians Construction Begin making the lining. Sew center back and center front crotches with a back stitch. Make sure you've transferred the proper length of the crotch seam from the exterior. By matching the crotch from fork to bottom of front opening, you ensure that your lining and exterior will line up correctly. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493748865-WZTWM2PZST3JCEDAWA6J/IMG_2369.jpg Venetians Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493932607-F9UZWVN5CSFO58AO2FBK/IMG_2417.jpg Venetians Construction Make the fly. Interline and press in half, tucking up one of the corners with pressing to create this shape. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493935770-E6NKKNGJK3BJMOF01U0I/IMG_2422.jpg Venetians Construction Sew the bottom closed https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493929080-UQPDV2KARQX3NV3W5H5H/IMG_2425.jpg Venetians Construction Mark and make the buttonholes in the fly https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493934784-RITNGM25A1CI1JJHF5B5/IMG_2433.jpg Venetians Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590493879728-D3F6A3AU3OMMCEAJDXP9/IMG_2450.jpg Venetians Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494207620-H5L872V87TJGCJZ0QXTD/IMG_2470+2.jpg Venetians Construction Place the raw edges of the fly under the left front of the opening. The pointed end of the fly should be pointing down toward the crotch. Pick stitch in place from the outside. Make sure to penetrate all layers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494222006-WUQFQPALN48ID2CXY39Z/IMG_2504.jpg Venetians Construction Place the lining into the shell and use knife pleats to pin the fullness to the very top of the waistband. The lining extends past the waist seam and continues to the top. Do not sew the lining to the waist seam. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494231068-JS871MTHQU2YLTJHVW67/IMG_2506.jpg Venetians Construction Use a running stitch to secure the lining in place about 1/8" (4mm) from the cut edge. This edge will have a bound finish so there shouldn't be stitches showing when it is complete. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494231180-ZBOAZG47NROXH95ZDTAG/IMG_2510.jpg Venetians Construction Hem the lining in place at the center fronts https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494224267-EQNXJ26NWPHXS9TCF17U/IMG_2516.jpg Venetians Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494232461-SBTWK8GPUU31B8UFYD6L/IMG_2528.jpg Venetians Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494244846-UK1Q9UIADLYQER3BC79C/IMG_2532.jpg Venetians Construction Prepare a binding strip by cutting either on the cross grain or bias grain, a strip that is about 2.5" (6.5cm) wide. Press in half down its length https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494273514-821WCTLDVFP7EFW6TMT9/IMG_2534.jpg Venetians Construction With the outside of the breeches facing you, stitch the first pass of the binding with a running stitch. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494263386-BCO3LS10AUFZLVRONCGL/IMG_2549+2.jpg Venetians Construction Turn the folded edge of the strip to the inside and hem in place using a felling stitch or a whip stitch. Slip stitch is not recommeded as it is too weak for this high friction area of the garment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494283512-SM8U4MHMK0VVRV2N3TD9/IMG_2552.jpg Venetians Construction The completed binding. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494275566-E8NFGYT99YAYYH441LF0/IMG_2556.jpg Venetians Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494271334-B5K3Q91838WU5WYQ6Z4M/IMG_2559.jpg Venetians Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494311334-2Z20B9608N3MQP5XAKUJ/IMG_2563+2.jpg Venetians Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494310527-GNKK0LC03HUHK6EFPGYY/IMG_2566+2.jpg Venetians Construction This photo shows how the large inverted pleats at center front will hide the fly when the garment is worn https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494301442-C8XMAZBBMUP23AQMUSJR/IMG_2578+2.jpg Venetians Construction Attach the lining at the leg openings and bind them in the same manner as the waist. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494312404-80DBYZJPAA5PDEJ1BQBV/IMG_2580.jpg Venetians Construction You may remove the basting on the pocket at this time. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494317852-LHEMHBCQTOJQ2VBZFR9B/IMG_2588.jpg Venetians Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494313695-KMIPTH419LD9U6AV12W1/IMG_2591.jpg Venetians Construction At the leg opening, use a stiletto to stretch open holes, through which a cord may be puled for the button loops at the leg. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494430744-NJQGUAAGGWTFWB1ZO4OZ/IMG_2600.jpg Venetians Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494510645-VR6RH6265ZCA6ZOM3LKQ/IMG_2602.jpg Venetians Construction https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494464360-5GEMIF9QH2SZW1A5NCK6/IMG_2606.jpg Venetians Construction Stitch the cord securely on the inside of the breeches.

These holes are for lacing the waist closed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590494466376-VKRXU4K20HR8SOXMU0DK/IMG_2651.jpg Venetians Construction eyelets may be added at the waist for tying the breeches to a doublet. Alternatively, extant garments show that sometimes holes were stretched, but not sewn into eyelets. ties were simply pushed through the holes and tied to the doublet.

Alexa is currently an intern shoemaker at Colonial Williamsburg. Back when there was still live theatre, you could find her working as a costume designer and technician all over the country, but most frequently in the DC metro area. Design Concept: My concept is a costume that reads as pretty standard late 18th century, apart from the color and the line of blood. The closer you look (and the closer you get) the more you realize how much trouble you’re in. It’s a look for a black widow who is probably the cause of death of whoever she is meant to be mourning. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602629703680-53GF9IJY9QEP8S8TSP1N/thumbnail_120260185_352788979107865_8699758957452893952_n.jpg Meet the Contestants - Chiara V. Hi everyone, I'm Chiara, from Italy, and I'm very happy to join this lovely initiative. Especially considering that the last five costume events I should have attended have been cancelled. Some of you may know me with my pseudonym/ brand name: Grimilde Malatesta. The historical time I love the most is between 1895 and 1907. Design Concept: The inspiration comes from both history of fashion and cinema costumes, though it's not a replica of a specific design. The concept came as I was trying to find out what to do with silk chiffon leftovers from several orders from the last years. I make a costume from Star Wars that requires less than one lot of fabric, and buying the lot is slightly cheaper. So I stored all those one to two meters leftovers away. Some of them were white, others ivory, some of them were perfectly pearly and smooth, others matte and more crepe-like. I wanted something that could use their differences as a positive addition to the design. I wanted something that could make both the ghost and the vampire bride. Some inspiration came from the 1890s aesthetic movement gows, some from Klimt's work, for the initial idea of the swirls, and some from the 1890s Medici collars. late 1890s are my favourite historical period, almost everything I make has something to do with them. Edwardian dressing gowns and Worth's use of light materials to contrast the most defined shapes had a role too, as well as paintings of the Aestheticism. I was also inspired by Crimson Peak, Bram Stoker's Dracula, and Titania's cape by Gabriella Pescucci, from Midsummer Night's Dream. I basically wanted to design something that could have its place in a vampire movie set in 1890s, but focusing con the otherworldly aspect of the character. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602775817872-861EXUY4JBSWSKFS2Q6J/thumbnail_IMG_20201013_181253346.jpg Meet the Contestants - Sarah G. Wild Maiden Studio was a Facebook page I started for myself to help me stay motivated to do a hobby I love. While I have been sewing since the age of 14, it was only at age 20 when I started participating in Live Action Role Play (LARP) and was exposed to the SCA that I discovered my true love of sewing. Fantasy has been my main wheelhouse, helping my friends make costumes for their characters. I've only more recently started to lean into more historical recreations. I feel as though my journey is still in its early stages, and I am excited for the road ahead! —-Always remember: Stay Wild, Stay Creative. Design Concept: Living in the 18th Century was hard for anyone, harder still for a young single woman working a small family farm. Long days and dark nights blur together in the dizzing dance of monotony as she tends her chores. Life becomes an endless parade of greys and browns as the seasons pass with no sign of change nor opportunity. It is autumn. The scent of decay is heavy in the air as leaves litter the ground. It is dusk when the stranger opens the gate. The hinges creak loudly in the still evening air. Not expecting any guests, she comes to the door. The man shouts, running towards her in an inexplicable rage. Startled and afraid, she reaches for something to defend herself. Outside the door, her faithful companion, The Axe, is ready. And she discovers, there is still beauty to be had in the world, and that it is a deep, deep red. She returns to her daily life, but the Thrill of that night beckons her. On deep autumn nights, she stalks the woods for wayward travelers and lovers, painting her world with the beautiful sympony of screams and crimson. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602629264335-BNQKHJ4VCDAJUX7FUBD4/thumbnail_IMG_0737.jpg Meet the Contestants - Karen F. I began my costuming obsession as a kid, taking apart thrift store finds and making things. I love the challenge and creativity of making something from practically nothing. I am willing to make mistakes and do things wrong, but I also strive to improve from each mistake. A self taught seamstress, I am constantly learning. I never want to let fear of imperfection stop me from trying something new. My performance experience includes live theatre, choral music, and dance highlighted by opportunities as costume director for St Maximilian and Ballet America Nutcracker, as well as co-director of Belladonna Historical Performers and cast member of the Adventures Club and the Royals at the Great Dickens Christmas Fair. Principal dancer with Zambalita, New Moon Rising, and the Red Desert Dance Company, I was also costume designer for each group. I ran an ETSY shop "Gracious and Pure" selling mermaid accessories. I have always been drawn to performance, to spectacle, and to entertaining. I keep sane by keeping busy with creativity. Design Concept: The Nobel Peace Prize was awarded in 1923 to Frederick Grant Banting and he made the patent free. Today insulin is embroiled in the fight for health care, and diabetes is one of the most expensive pre existing conditions. Without health care many diabetics can not afford to stay alive. Most insurance companies don’t cover testing supplies at all. In 2020 I started using an insulin pump which creates an enormous amount of waste. I am always looking for ways to reuse materials for costumes and I have saved all of my insulin cartridges for this project. I also acquired a military parachute used to drop supplies to soldiers which I want to use as a base since insulin has saved many lives since 1920. My design is loosely based on the Robe de Style, using the parachute as part of the skirt and using the pump cartridges as embellishments in the front and back. The open structure of the parachute lends itself to a cage crinoline. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602630201800-L5PT6NXBSZ9RUGVMIBLI/thumbnail_kcercone1.jpg Meet the Contestants - Kelly C. Kelly C. (aka @AnachronismInAction) is a freelance costumer based in Los Angeles. She loves making corsets + complexly structured garments, hand sewing, fabric manipulation, fringe and stripes. I originally started making the dress several years ago after I found a striped chiffon in a remnant bin that was reminiscent of a favorite portrait. As sometimes happens I ended up finishing the dress several years later, adding a purple underlining and then made new, bigger sleeves. When I was brainstorming for this contest, it occurred to me, “what if the extra sleeves were arms?” After reading some variations of the Greek myth about Arachne, I decided to go with the spider theme. I had just enough fabric to make more sleeves and a matching hat. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602627429511-LF80ZKB1ZWKMRL6S6PAG/thumbnail_IMG_20200930_131958.jpg Meet the Contestants - Jennifer M. Jenni M. is an artist also known as Trinket & Crow. She lives amongst the woods in Central Kentucky. She is a former art teacher, and a fiber artist who does wool needle-felting and wet-felting. Twelve years ago she taught herself to drape and draft patterns so she could make herself a costume for the annual Jane Austen Festival in Louisville, Kentucky, and her love of historical costuming grew from there. Design Concept: Historical inspiration for my costume comes from 1790-1794, French Revolution Aristocracy. I'm taking fabric and construction inspiration from contemporary fashion plates, and extant garments. I'll also be using images, notes, and patterns from "Patterns of Fashion 1" by Janet Arnold, "Costume Close-up" by Linda Baumgarten and John Watson, and "Costume in Detail" by Nancy Bradfield, although, the final garment will be drafted and draped by me, and won't fully from any of the books. I'm making the outfit macabre and Halloween ready by turning myself into the ghost of a beheaded French Aristocrat. My hair is short, and perfect for the shorn-off and messy "Titus" style begrudgingly worn by those who knew the guillotine personally. I will make myself up to have pale skin, and dark, haunted eyes. I will also be fashioning a red ribbon and bead necklace, tightly fitted around my neck to look like blood coming from the cut on my severed neck. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602624743126-6ESKG256HT6TUO3Z7IXC/20201001_165502.jpg Meet the Contestants - Lorien H. Hey y'all, I'm Lorien. I'm a currently very unemployed costume technician for live theatre. My grandmother taught me to sew as a kid, and I've participated with the Society for Creative Anachronism for more than half my life. I was born and raised in Texas, but recently moved to New England from the Pacific Northwest. I'm thrilled to be a part of this contest as an excuse to ease into 18th century costuming, especially because I whole-heartedly believe New England is where Halloween comes from! Design Concept: I've been interested in late 18th century clothing recently, and liked the way a redingote's collars and lapels could be used to mimic gills and carapace of a swamp monster. Thinking more about the genesis of the style, I've settled on a concept of a woman that had been out riding in the woods, fell victim to the creatures of the nearby waters, and has now become the monster that lures in drowning victims. I'm hoping to subtly incorporate fins and scales into the trimming of my garment, as time allows. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602624934631-UKSLZO89LTQNDSMUWBXD/IMG_20201005_154405949.jpg Meet the Contestants - Barbara M. I was born in Virginia and raised in rural Arkansas. I earned my bachelor's degree in biology and art. I have used these studies in making and crafting throughout my life. This has lead me to have diverse employment opportunities. Since my retirement to Tidewater Virginia, I have worked part-time for the Jamestown Yorktown Foundation as an Historical Clothing Technician, constructing and repairing reproduction clothing for two living history museums representing time periods from 1607 to 1781. I am currently collecting and repairing vintage and antique sewing machines. Historical character- Hannah Nicholson Tunnell She is frequently portrayed in Hampton Virginia ghost tours by my model, Bethany Brooke. No photos are known to exist of Hannah. Her birthdate is also not recorded. The city of Hampton was totally burned and no early structures remain. The reconstructed St John's Episcopal Church graveyard contains a monument to Hannah that records her death in 1871 in Hampton. She was instrumental in alerting the Confederate forces about the coming attack by the Union forces in the Battle of Big Bethel in the Peninsula Campaign of the Civil War. The ghost tours were held in October, near St, John's Episcopal Church in downtown Hampton. The Hampton History Museum is across the street from the graveyard. They have a dress on display that belonged to a governess during the Civil War time period. Hannah was a governess before her marriage. She was living in Hampton with her husband, George, and her children at the time of the war. Her husband had taken the children inland to safety before the conflict and she and her brother, Robert, were gathering household goods in preparation to follow them. The advancing Union troops came in the early dawn and Hannah ran along the wooded trails and byways to avoid being caught. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602811298001-J8ESV3GQU3QRLXZSYC1U/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-10-13%2Bat%2B6.28.59%2BPM.jpg Meet the Contestants - Devon M. I am an abundantly enthusiastic learner, former Latin teacher, and an MPhil Cantab. in Classics and Linguistics. I have been fascinated by historical costume since childhood, and through the SCA, I have developed a serious academic impulse to research and experiment with it. My main interest is Roman costume, and in particular, the columnar draping along the neckline of various tunicae and the fastening method(s) used to form the sleeves of Ionic-style tunicae. While these garments are often dismissed as simple pins and tubes, there are several variations on draping and a number of questions to be answered about the points and methods of attachment. There has been an argumentum ad ignorantiam that the cling of the fabric and plentitude of pleats is artistic fantasy. In hopes of dispelling this notion, I am currently researching the occurrences of these various elements and the ability of various fibers and weave structures to replicate them. You will see one attempt in this competition, and I hope you’ll see a paper about it in a few years! Design Concept: The Fall of the House of Roma Bound tight by dainty picot ribbon, the supple flesh of Roma is entombed alive in a casket of dead marble. Her limbs are cruelly broken by time, and her lifeblood drains in drops of delicate lace. For 1800 years, she has been smothered and tortured into the shape of her progeny’s desire. Her ancient ultramarine eyes blaze from the depths, pleading for mercy and hungering for revenge. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602812024893-0S6I3MCEIDZKQKFGYBTG/Untitled_Artwork.jpg Meet the Contestants - Laura P. Laura P. has been researching, experimenting with, and creating 15th and 16th century clothing for over 25 years, and is active in the SCA and renaissance faire communities. She has been designing and creating costumes for theatrical productions and historic re-enactors since 1999, with a focus on historically accurate clothing reproductions and historically inspired fantasy costuming. Beginning in 2010, her focus shifted to theatrical costume design and construction, and she is currently an active theatrical costume designer, educator, and actor in Raleigh, NC. Her theatrical and historic work can be found on her website, at http://www.laurajparker.com Early Modern Vampire. The costume itself is a fairly standard early modern ensemble - based loosely off of Robert Peake the Younger's portrait of Margaret Arundel, Lady Weston. Rather than the closed ruff in the portrait, I'll be subbing in an Italian-inspired open ruff, which will give me greater flexibility to add stage blood down the front of the face and neck in the photo shoot. The goal is to work primarily from stash fabrics - I've had this pink embroidered silk in my stash for years, and had already made a waistcoat out of it. I had enough yardage for another waistcoat, but don't need TWO of the exact same ones - so I threw it in the dye vat to see what would happen: https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602629449709-UTYJYT48Y4WEQOMNLBRT/thumbnail_IMG_2330.jpg Meet the Contestants - Courtney P. I am a historical recreationist interested in medieval and renaissance historical sewing, knitting, and other fiber arts. I focus on finding a balance between the ease and speed of modern sewing techniques with the experimental archeology of historical practice. I mainly play in the SCA but also veer into fantasy LARP and Renaissance festival territory. I’m looking forward to branching out into other, more recent historical eras. Design Concept: I’m interested in exploring the late Tudor/ early Elizabethan working class through a modern goth and aesthetically witchy lens. I’m also interested in creating a cohesive outfit with items I already own, items I own and will be altering, and creating new pieces to bring everything together. I plan on using a mixture of modern and period materials and techniques to create a seasonally appropriate gothic Tudor witch. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602811392049-YMVZ0CA9C0J2CB1U3KDF/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-10-15%2Bat%2B11.21.48%2BAM.jpg Meet the Contestants - Dannielle P. Dannielle has been participating in Living history since 1995. She is a professional milliner and owner of Timely Tresses. Her inter- pretations span the 1770s through the 1870s. She is an avid collector of extant garments, photographs, and fashion plates. She lives in North Carolina with her husband and three children. Design Concept: I plan to use an original mid-19th century black silk carriage parasol with this look. Though a bit small for the Recency era, it is black and silk and will look the part. One of the two bonnets for this piece will be trimmed with black ostrich plumes reminiscent of the large black plumes worn on funeral horses in the 19th century. Both bonnets will be ornamented with original lace veil. A short train has always been part of the idea for this look. Fabric of polka dotted silk organza. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602624375334-Y7PBDBIDKTCZOSV79S4C/Screen+Shot+2020-10-13+at+5.22.52+PM.png Meet the Contestants - Catherine S. Catherine S. read "Little House on the Prairie" at age five and has been obsessed with historic clothing ever since. She learned to sew at her mother's knee and to embroider at her grandmother's. In high school she discovered vintage dance, the Northern California Renaissance Pleasure Faire, and Dickens Fair, and was amazed to learn that she could combine her passions for dance, costume, history and theater. Catherine served on the board of the Greater Bay Area Costumers Guild for 10 years as Newsletter Editor, Events Coordinator, and President. She has taught many costuming workshops for GBACG, Lacis, Renaissance Fabrics, 1886/Costume On, and Costume College, and is a current fashion student. Catherine is a Bay Area native and lives in Berkeley with five alpha males: her husband, two teenage sons, two dogs, and a massively spoiled cat. “My costume is… Art Nouveau Persephone, circa 1900. This was a time when women’s roles were on the cusp of huge transition. I am drawing my inspiration from Mucha, Liberty, and Fortuny. All three artists re-defined how women were depicted and clothed… and by extension how they behaved. The loosening of women’s clothes mirrored the imminent loosening of their societal cages. I am planning two garments: a Liberty of London-inspired Grecian gown in nile green silk/cotton sateen and silk chiffon, with gold trim. Turn of the century ladies magazines described this style of gown as either evening wear or stage/fancy dress. The loose “goddess” styling and spring green color evoke young Persephone, the goddess of spring. https://manchesterartgallery.org/collections/title/?mag-object-17163 The second garment is a Fortuny-styled burnoose cloak in black velvet stenciled with gold pomegranates. This queenly cloak evokes a more mature, womanly Persephone, in her role as queen of the Underworld. Is this heavy, encompassing garment, and the role it represents, a burden or a badge of honor? It’s up to Persephone to decide. https://augusta-auction.com/auction?view=lot&id=14060&auction_file_id=30 The visible green gown beneath the cloak shows the layers in every woman’s soul… the young woman that’s still inside the older one. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602629023331-QKRD1RFX9NGPHYOHSO00/thumbnail_WIN_20200930_12_21_53_Pro.jpg Meet the Contestants - Bernadette F. I live in New Brunswick, Canada. I have been sewing for as long as I can remember. My mom handed me scissors and scrap fabric, a needle and thread and that is when I started designing clothing, I have no idea how old I was but I made many outfits for my Barbies. Although my mother initially taught me to sew, I have taken those first lessons and expanded greatly by taking workshops, university courses. I also apprenticed under a seamstress for 5 years and read everything I could get my hands on. In making historical clothing, I deal strictly in history and photography is just not my thing, actually technology is not my comfort zone at all and I almost never wear makeup but I thought I would give it a shot and have some fun while I was at it. I am no artist when it comes to drawing and telling a story of a fictional character is something I find more than challenging, so this will stretch my brain a bit. When this project is complete I will be telling the story of Carman, a Celtic witch, and what she represents. I want to do this in Victorian clothing dating from late 1870’s early 1880’s though with Subtle hints to a Celtic root and witchcraft. The embroidery design will be Celtic symbols used in witchcraft, and there will be signs of destruction and black magic as well as a head piece made of oak twigs, I hope. If you are not up on your Celtic folklore Carman is a witch who practices black magic and she is a tad destructive. Carman is often depicted as a beautiful young woman with a stunning figure and dark hair. So let's step ahead a few hundred years into the Victorian age and she has gained a few pounds, has white hair, an orange cat and time has only made her attitude worse. In closing I would like to leave a rhyme in your thoughts from, Michael Aislabie Denham's Proverbs and Popular Saying of the Seasons (London, 1846) , about what crows mean One for sorrow, Two for mirth Three for a funeral, Four for birth Five for heaven Six for hell Seven for the devil, his own self https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602815956201-QUZ77T3Q9396FV423TN2/thumbnail_costume+contest+rendering+2020.jpg Meet the Contestants - Sandra T. I have been enthusiastically sewing since I was very young, having been taught by my mother. Professionally, my background is in theatrical costuming, and I worked for a professional theater company in the Washington DC area for about 24 years before COVID hit. Like so many others in my field, my colleagues and I were laid off. Although it was devastating to leave a job I loved, I am currently planning and hoping for new adventures that will involve my love of costume and sewing! :) This contest is right up my alley as it involves all things dark and creepy. I am using it as an opportunity to challenge myself to improve my patternmaking. Design Concept: When I'm not working on costumes for theater, I make a lot of cosplay costumes for my daughter to compete in at conventions. However, this year she is away at her first year of college and I needed to find another muse. I looked around and spotted my youngest son, Ezra, who is eleven, and quite the character. Bonus, he loves dressing up and is quite good at posing! When I saw the criteria for this contest, I had the idea that I could dress him as a child from one of those sort of creepy Victorian photos. I briefly considered a post-mortem style photo, but I thought that I could make him more creepy as a strange living child. :) What is it about children that makes them so disturbing in horror movies? I thought about the Grady twins in The Shining, Damien from The Omen, Regan from The Exorcist, The Village of the Damned, and so on. So- I settled on this idea of a little boy in an old fashioned photo with various unsettling props. He will wear a dark wool suit with a lace collar and cuffs and a cap. Trims, etc. are TBD. I'm attempting to make this costume out of supplies from my stash, so we'll see what I can come up with! The design of the suit is a mish-mash of details from different vintage reference photos. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1602888681002-Z54WTN9Y3NN36JAZ8IAD/thumbnail_Ghost+a+la+reine_sml.jpg Meet the Contestants - Penny S. Penny is quite new to historical costuming, barely a year into her hand-sewing and historical costume construction journey. While she has long been interested in fashion history, she fell into sewing as a hobby largely through larp and the desire to make more accurate costumes for herself and friends for historical larps and events. It's also a lovely way to feel like she's developing new skills and accomplished something at the end of a day, which is not something you often get during PhD studies. ;) She lives in Canberra, Australia with her husband and cat. Design concept The Ghost a la Reine When Marie Antoinette posed for an official royal portrait in her "chemise" dress it started a fashion craze for simpler free-er lines and ethereal sheer cotton fabrics that would last in European women's fashion for decades after her death. However, it also caused a scandal and some believe contributed to the popular discontent with the frivolous, out-of-touch and indulgent monarchy, ultimately leading to her execution. Now she stalks the corridors of the bastille at night, the remnants of her iconic dress trailing with cobwebs and lace, a line of red at her throat. Is it a velvet choker or the mark of Madame Guillotine? My concept is to make one of these iconic dresses, but to style it with cobweb-y lace trims and a veil, reminiscent of images of ghostly brides and out-of-touch aging beauties.

Bobbin Lace (COMING SOON!) Bobbin lace was originally created as a faster way to make some of the patterns that were popular with needle lace. In just a few short decades, it had evolved into a textile art in its own right. The simple structure of a braid is elevated to a complexity that seems almost impossible. Yet the technique is simple. Bobbin lace requires more supplies than other laces, but it is worth the time and effort. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1590838296947-SWVBPTUFLI8EMPSX9ICX/IMG_0386.jpg Lace - Knitted Lace (COMING SOON!) Knitted lace is an art form like no other. With the simplicity of a “yarn-over” you can make holes appear in the fabric you’re making. With a little planning, or a good pattern, you can create works of art, like the one in this photo. The tradition of knitting with holes goes back, almost to the beginning of the craft. Come along on a journey to find your favorite kind of knitted lace. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1589024280041-EH3EUENR6W6XPUC09ZU8/IMG_0038.jpg Lace - Crochet Lace (COMING SOON!) Crochet lace has a beauty that is all its own. From imitating other forms of lace, to its own unique styles, working with nothing more than a hook and thread, you can create incredibly beautiful pieces of lace. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/1589024010037-RD981184LN81LRQ0Q1KB/Lace%2Bin%2BSunshine.jpg Lace - Needle Lace Needle lace, no matter the technique, is made with a needle and thread. There are different styles and methods, but in the end, needle lace involves working macramé-like knots around a core of threads. sometimes the core is small, sometimes thick, but the end result is a network of shapes and lines that has endless…and I do mean endless variety. https://www.themodernmaker.co/schoolhouse-classes-week-four daily 0.75 2020-12-09 https://www.themodernmaker.co/schoolhouse-class-week-six daily 0.75 2020-12-28 https://www.themodernmaker.co/schoolhouse-classes-week-five daily 0.75 2020-12-17 https://www.themodernmaker.co/schoolhouse-store daily 0.75 2020-09-30 https://www.themodernmaker.co/schoolhouse-store/male-presenting-clothing monthly 0.5 2025-05-12 https://www.themodernmaker.co/schoolhouse-store/sewing-patterns monthly 0.5 2025-05-12 https://www.themodernmaker.co/schoolhouse-store/p/trouser-drafting-booklet monthly 0.5 2025-07-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eab1417301e223900ac2d7e/99c1e70d-f0d0-47a6-a974-ba9e4b628daf/Screenshot+2025-07-04+at+11.37.24%E2%80%AFAM.png Schoolhouse Store -
