| Post subject: | Charles Du Blois Arming Jacket Pattern |
Tasha McGann just released a comprehensive pattern for the Charles De Blois Arming Jacket. This is the same style of arming jacket that Sir Victor and I have, and we would both highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in pointing their armor to a garment or just looking for a nice piece of historical outer-wear. I have heard from trusted sources that Tasha is one hell of a seamstress and an all around good gal, so I'd consider her a safe vendor. If you have any kind of proficiency with a sewing machine, this $43 pattern will allow you to make many arming jackets that would cost you $200+ retail. From this post on the AA: Quote: Here is what you will get for the price of $35 plus $8 (domestic shipping/handling)/$15 (international shipping/handling): - A complete pattern on sturdy white paper for chest sizes in two ranges: 37-44, or 46-50. - Options to make a civilian-style garment or an arming garment. - Sixty pages of step-by-step instructions for making the garment using a contemporary or historical method – your choice. - Information on how to pad and quilt the garment. - 95+ diagrams showing every step of the process. - Cutting layouts for two sizes of fabric, with and without nap. (Helpful for velvet.) - Two bonus inserts to teach you how to hand-sew historically-accurate eyelets and buttonholes. - Fabric and notion recommendations. - A sturdy white envelope to keep everything in. - My availability on email to answer your questions: tasha@cottesimple.com |
