Jorvik Hood

Currently I'm working on a Jorvik hood for myself. I had good luck with hoods for the girls but the stitches I was doing by hand for myself turned out badly so I'm just going to run it through the sewing machine. I have no problems doing that! I don't want it to fall apart while I'm wearing it that would be really embarrassing.

I've also been trying to work on my embroidery skills. I finished one cuff of my daughters pink tunic the thread is a pretty rose color so it looks great with the pink tunic. I'm also working on a triquerta that won't go on any garb but is good practice for me. I also have a hood for my eldest girl that is a pretty vine pattern but I haven't finished that either.


I'm terrible with starting projects but taking forever to finish them!

Triquerta in progress

At this point my skill set isn't really that great so I'm going to practice basic stitches and once I master those then I can put them together for more intricate patterns. For now even a small bit of decoration on garb makes it look better than just plain and boring garb!
