Since we’ve gone to two medioevale rivivio events now,
Elise has been bugging me to make her a T-tunic. Greater love than this hath no
mom who can’t sew well, but that she make a T-tunic entirely by hand for her
daughter. (Though I can’t take all the credit – Mamma did the side seams. I
cut, hemmed, inset underarm gussets, and embroidered.) I had asked the SCA Garb
group on fb for help with it, and so posted pictures once it was done. They
were very supportive of my effort! Rose wants one now, in lavender, of course.
But it’s done in time for her to wear it to the Palio in Parma tomorrow. Not
that I think she’s going to – she hasn’t felt good all day, which is
unsatisfactory since school finally starts on Monday. But Rosie and I are still
planning to go (even though we won’t get to see the actual Palio, the race,
since that’s not till Sunday, and I’m just not spending an afternoon out an
hour’s drive away on the last day before new school!).
