Companions

Queta's Closet Booklet #213
Topic: Patterns from 16th C. authentic sources; to be enlarged.

Lucy Barton's famous book, HISTORIC COSTUME for the STAGE, has a little-known companion titled PERIOD PATTERNS by Doris Edson. The few pages pertaining to patterns for SCA use have been reprinted with permission, and include documentation for extant examples. Men's and women's garb are completely patterned, and will be easy to enlarge and to understand. Patterns for men's doublets, trunk hose and capes, and women's Spanish robes, gowns and mantles are included.
