R & I will talk. I don’t know if 2012 is do-able, with the pending Oz trip… but if not, then we’ll aim for 2013.
It would be fun to just go to a war & not do a whole lot except shopping, classes, & hanging out. What a concept!

Yes! Don’t just say it, pick a year and we’ll coordinate and make it so! TOTALLY!

Broccoli, Cauliflower, Carrots, Celery and Onions in a brine which is 2 parts apple cider vinegar to 1 part sugar (though I think I was scant on the sugar).

Slice up veggies and place in crocks. Heat up brine until the sugar is all melted. Let brine cool until “room” temperature. Pour brine over veggies. The longer they’re in the brine the better they are.

Hi my name is Molly known in the SCA as THL Amalthea Von Thungen. I am the Smooch frau in the picture taken from the Landsknect.org site. I have no problem with you using the picture but in the future please ask before borrowing anything from my page. That being said I am very please that you thought the hemd worthy of reproduction. The technique was taught to me by a one of the Drachenwald Swedish fraus a few years back as was construction of most of the kampfrau clothing I wear. Should you have any questions on how to recreate your own version,please feel free to ask me.

Also I am in the process of doing an Art/Sci master work entry of the 16th century German Hemd. When it is finished I can send you a copy if you like.

Good luck and keep sewing!

Sadly no. On my first hemd the collar was too big (a boat collar) and on the second one I haven’t yet smocked it.

I have been looking at your hemd which is beautifull. So decided that for my new gown that i really want to make a hemd like it. I made a sample piece just to make sure that i have the kinks worked out. I realized that the neckline once smocked has a tendency to turn in. Did you have this problem? I am not sure what i did wrong but do you have an idea on how i could achieve a better looking neckline.

Thank you for having such a great web site.
Rose
