Fashionable Medieval Clothing: Easy-to-Sew Accessories

Описание: This chapter discusses simple medieval accessories that can be sewn from just a few pieces of fabric. The emphasis is on headwear, rectangular and semi-circular cloaks, and a couple of simple bags/satchels. These are also great ways to use up small pieces of fabric left over from other projects.
