These pages showcase some of the clothing I have made for myself and my lord in the SCA. To reduce the number of images per page, I have separated the clothing by garment type.

| Italian Renn Dress
This dress is based on the "Betrothal of Jason and Medea" painting by Morone that is shown below. The dress is made in 3 layers. The first layer is a white chemise. The chemise is made from cotton gauze, and is cut large enough to puff between the tie-on sleeves.
The second layer (underdress) is a light gold/cream brocade, made from curtains found at a thrift store. The underdress has a high waisted bodice that laces up the side. The skirt is pleated onto the bodice.
The overdress is made from wine colored cotton velvet. The overdress has a high waisted bodice, open in a "V" to the waist. The skirt of the overdress is split in front, and pleated onto the bodice. The overdress fastens at the front waist with a clasp.
The dress has tie-on sleeves in two sections, one section for the upper arm and one for the lower arm. The sleeves are made from the same fabric as the underdress. (When I took the photo, I could only find one sleeve!)
