Here’s a link to my 18th century menswear resources post.
For anyone who may have taken a recent interest in historical sewing for pirate related reasons.
It’s quite a long post, and a bit disorganized. I keep meaning to write it up in a more organized way on my blogspot blog, but haven’t yet. If any of the links are dead let me know and I’ll fix them.
The costumes on Our Flag Means Death were all over the place in terms of historical accuracy & decade (none of it was 1710’s!), but Stede had quite a few decent mid 18th century looking suits, and there were lots of good square cut shirts, so this ought to be helpful wether you’re going for screen accuracy or historical accuracy.
El delantal del Sammlung National Museum esta formado por dos piezas; la falda y el peto, comencé con la falda que lleva un poco mas de trabajo. He dividido la colcha de Ikea en dos (el largo que era de 2m que he cordado en dos piezas de 1m) obteniendo dos piezas de 1′20cm x 1m, que uní con una costura francesa.
Antes de empezar a coser, hay que cortar en la parte superior una inclinación que desciende unos 9cm y que será el pico central donde que se unirá al peto. Tras ello ya podemos ir rematado ambos laterales y hacer el bajo. Yo personalmente tengo predilección por los bajos anchos, así que he dejado unos 10cm.
Con toda la tela preparada de la ‘falda’ del delantal, he fruncido la parte superior dividiéndola en dos partes para controlar mejor los frunces.
Souvenir!
In my last travel, I visited Santiago de Compostela (Spain) and I could pass this opportunity for bought this wonderful traditional earrings. I can’t wait to use it in the next reenactment!!!
