Garb Sewing Projects


I worked on two smaller sewing projects lately a smock as I desperately needed another one and an apron for doing Arts and Science projects in.

The smock above was made from the Elizabethan Smock generator online which works fairly well. I used a blend of silk and cotton for this smock and added linen lace to the neckline. It's lightweight and feels lovely against the skin. It's also pretty much see-through due to how light-weight the material is so there isn't a picture of me wearing it.

The lace I used here I purchased via etsy from Lithuania. It's gorgeous and I love the historic feel of it- perfect for the period with the beginning of lace.

My other project was a cotton apron, which I hand dyed with indigo. A little blotchy and cotton isn't period but it's perfect to protect my dress with during Arts and Science events. It started as two rectangular pieces of cloth and then was hemmed and gathered into the apron shown.

Overall not super exciting projects but satisfying anyways to get them finished.

  1. I'm someone who has lived a life seemingly in the background, I must say this final indignity I have suffered almost too much to endure. You see, I have been sickly and weak since the day I was born and doomed to go through my life weakling. I seemed to have always suffered from one illness or another and could never play with the other children as I so desperately wanted to. Mother always made such a big fuss over me, also, making the situation worse as the other boys teased me mercilessly after they saw it. I was browsing  the internet searching on how I could be transformed into a powerful person when I came across the email of a man named Lord Mark. who was a VAMPIRE so I told him that I has always dreamed of becoming a  VAMPIRES, All i did was just to follow the procedure that i was been told, and i bet you that procedure I took change my entire life to something i ever desire, freedom, sickness free, pains free, fame, influence, connections and even more that i can. Thanks to Lord Mark. Do you want a life full of interesting things? Do you want to have power and influence over others? To be charming and desirable? To have wealth, health, and longevity? contact the vampires creed today via email: Vampirelord7878@gmail.com
