Reconstitutions

La question de l'existence de la broderie n'est évidemment pas sujette à caution, il faut néanmoins s'intéresser aux usages de ces broderies : Par qui ? Pour quoi ? Sont-elles utilisées. Est-ce que tous les décors brodés sont utilisés de la même manière ? Ce premier article est une introduction aux différents usages des décors brodés au Moyen-âge dans l'habillement. Dans les articles à venir également, je vous présenterai quelques exemples de broderies (parfois terminées, parfois en cours) que nous réalisons dans le cadre de l'atelier de brodeurs.

Of course, we took pictures along the way. Being medieval re-enactors in the SCA, we tried to hit as many medieval museums, churches and castles as we could along the way. Anyways, I thought I would share with re-enactors back home in the U.S. some of the fascinating things that we saw while in Britain. A warning, before you get into the pictures: we had a very hard time getting good pictures.

The Bernard Strigel Necklace – as close as I can get it

I also prefer creating my own originals inspired by history and my own imagination. But lately, I’ve made TWO pieces that I’ve tried to get as close to the originals as I could, using the techniques and materials I have a at hand. The first was the Cheapside Hoard grape pendant that you can read about in my post previous to this, and now here’s my version of a necklace that can be found in a fantastic painting, “Portrait of a Woman” by the painter Bernhard Strigel. He was born in Memmingen, Germany in 1460 and died 1528. Painting by Bernhard Strigel, early 16th century, Germany. Judging by the cut of the lady’s dress, I would think the painting was painted around 1510. Enjoy the photos below. Back view of the pendant.

10 Tips to Look More Medieval

If you take your time and really hunt, you can sometimes catch a decent price on brocade (I got some once for $5/yard). Also, if you go to yard sales and flea markets, you can sometimes get old fur coats for cheap, which can be cut up and pieced back together to make sideless surcoat tops or the lining of a short mantle. Even if you can’t afford a lot of brocade or fur, you can get a lot of the value of it by using it selectively.

You can get a small piece of rabbit fur from a leather goods shop and put fur trim around sleeves or collar, or line a hood or hat. You can get a one yard remnant of brocade and make detachable sleeves, as I mentioned above, or make undersleeves to a short-sleeved cotehardie. Fake fur is better than no fur at all, and is all that will work in some places. Artifex - Szycie strojów historycznych, fantasy, tanecznych, gotyckich. Rzemiosło historyczne - kostiumy, namioty.

David had to work for half of the day so we had a late start getting there. In fact, I wasn't even sure that we were going to be able to go. I was thwarted at every turn. I couldn't find anything we needed. The wrapping paper and tape for our contributions to the gift exchange. I did finally find enough to get us clothed - although we looked a bit rumply, and the children had to wear modern shoes and pants beneath their tunics - and we packed into the van and made it just after court started. We did end up having a nice time, though.

I didn't get any pictures save one, of my right-side dinner companion, Mr. These other pictures are ones I had David take right before we left home, because I wanted everyone to be able to see the beautiful gift I received last month.

…well, here you can see the second part of my seam treatment of the seam around the face opening of my hood – unfortunately the picture of step one didn’t turn out well. The first step was to fold the edge of the fabric to the inside and to sew the edge to the fabric with small stitches while laying in a thread next to the edge… If my description seems a little bit unclear (sorry, English is not my mother tongue) or you have questions to this seam treatment – please scroll down to the last picture of this post where I took a photo of my finished seam and two rather similar schematic drawings of this technique from two of my books to give you a better idea of this technique… …and here a better picture of part 2 of the seam treatment – small stitches near to the edge of the seam which make the seam edge very flat – especially nice when you use rather bulky wool, this is a nice technique to flatten your seam and another plus – it also looks very decorative …and one picture of the inside out…
