Thank you so much! I've married a lovely Norwegian fella and he's very into his viking roots, and now my costume making past is coming handy with making viking outifts for myself and my stepdaughter. But my language skills are not yet up to reading the wonderful books and patterns here! We are off to Midgardsblot next week (on short notice) and staying the viking camp - your videos have been an absolute joy and relief. I've now got 2 days to get 2 'skifts' and 2 hanging dresses made, but feeling a lot less frantic!
Aww, that's amazing, honestly google translate is amazing, I don't speak any other language but can make out what I need using that, once you know the odd word it's easier to pick the right section. Not all of the translation is perfect but it's usually close enough sonyou can figure out what is going on, good luck with your event, I'm sure you will have a fab time!
This is exactly the video we all needed, dear lady. Always a delight to watch you, listen to your soothing voice and be given the confidence to cut my very expensive reenactment fabric as you put it hahahaha. I'm so grateful that you give us such excellent guidance AND provide us with your beautiful PDFs. I appreciate you
You do such a wonderful job on your videos and documents, I'm currently making myself a Viking era wardrobe so your videos have been immensely helpful. Thank You.
Yes. All of the yesses.❤️ Thank you for making it easier for a creative newbies like me and others. ❤ You are a delight to listen to and you make it look easy.❤️
@@WyrdKindred english is my second language and I understand you loud and clear. 😊 I have problems with selvedges etc. Don't worry it's the same in danish. That's why I have a notebook. 😉
Found your channel today; I've been working on making my first tunic, but was having a bit of trouble with the patterning, this was super helpful in figuring that out.
Thank you for this. I am very new to the viking world. My husband has just joined a group and needs me to make him an outfit, so this has been very useful, along with your other videos. Will there be a video of how to sew it together? Thank you.
Hi. :) yes there will. I have quite a lot to do in the next month, but I will be finishing the series over the next 6-8 weeks. Have you seen the others in the playlist, there's an Intro video that explains what each episode will be about, and a whole playlist about viking age sewing techniques as well to help you learn the stitching and seam treatments we will use to make the item as well. :)
I hope the video on how to make the simplest neckline comes out soon, because it stopped me x'D I cut out the hole and I wanted to put the seam allowance inside, but it turned out to be impossible, I don't know how to do it, please~ :(((
Have you cut a hole large enough to put your whole head through? Or are you doing a smaller neck sized circle and having a keyhole slit? I'm away at shows for a week or so, so the neckline vid won't be out for a few weeks, if you have a look at the Intermediate level videos there is one on using a facing at the neckline that might help. If you have cut the hole already you just turn the fabric at the edge inside, 5mm or so (twice if its a linen garment, so the raw edges are enclosed) and then whip stitch the hem all the way around.
Thank you so much for this!! I'll be making my first tunic with this tutorial (after a mock up, of course).
You are so welcome. :)
these videos are so so helpful and you explain them so well and so patiently!! thank you so much!!!
Aw, thank you! You are so welcome. :)
