Dilemma only a fabric hoarder could understand

tudorpot wrote in sca_garb Aug 12, 2011 19:53

At a yard sale found just over 3 metres of chocolate brown worsted wool- $6!!!! OH, what to make? On one hand, it only cost $6, so a simple tunic, but where else will I find such lovely fabric and maybe I should wait til I can make a kirtle or cothardie with it?

Hello, the list!

I am attempting to make a marshal's tabard for my husband and am looking for pictures of them in action. I get the construction of the tabard but am specifically looking for pictures that show how wide they are.

Any help would be appreciated! :)
