Pinking Tools

Nov 25, 2009 09:31

Oh interwebz, I know that some of you have access to images of historical pinking/fabric embossing tools; care to share? I ask because a blacksmith I know is interested in possibly taking up making some of these as a project and I am woefully short of materials for him to reference. I understand that there are a few images in the JA book on later 16th C. dress, but I can't locate those online. Anyone out there interested in these types of tools for your own use? (Did run across this little gem though - never thought of using plastic tarp that way before!) EDIT 12/18: Information has been passed to the craftsperson; we'll see what he says!
