FAQ – embroidered hood with dagging… pattern & embroidery

Veröffentlicht am von

DSC01594I was asked several times now, from where I got my pattern for my embroidered hood with dagging – it’s really quite easy if you have this book:

The Medieval Tailor’s Assistant: Making Common Garments 1200-1500
page 193
“2. Pattern for Fig 1″

Yes, I know, many people say that the patterns in this book aren’t authentic and/or not accurate – but I tried this pattern and it works very well – it’s a rather easy pattern and I think it’s rather easy to sew especially if you are a beginner concerning sewing…

DSC08022…btw. I already have a book with ‘A’ patterns and a refitted medieval pattern of a hood from a lady in Aarnimetsä (Finland), but that’s another project – will tell you more about as soon as I start this project :)

I just followed the instruction in the book, added more fabric for the Liripipe and the Face opening and for the dagging – you can find many photos of the progress of my hood here:

…and here the inspiration for the embroidery:

Medieval hood, ursprünglich hochgeladen von *nereida*

Maybe some of you remember my embroidered Gugel (hood) with dagging (see the photo on the left) – recently I had a look through the photo collections of some friends at Flickr – where I found Kiriels photos of a lovely medieval pouch and also a photo of Nereidas ‘Medieval hood’.

My Gugel inspired her to make an embroidered hood for herself – she writes that she already added more embroidery to her hood, I hope she will post photos of her progress soon :)

It’s great to be an inspiration for other artisans! Yeah! :)
Nereida has no blog or website I could link to, but maybe you would like to have a look through Nereidas Flickr photos :)

btw. if you got inspired by one of my projects – please let me know, I would love to post about it :)
