It's so good!!! I bookmarked your page to go through all the resources you linked! I read the David C Woodman book you mentioned, it's incredibly sad and frustrating how Inuit stories were ignored for so long
I typically draft the patterns myself as most of the stuff I make isn't super complicated. The Closet Historian on youtube is super helpful if you're interested in pattern drafting! For the looser 18th century style shirts and chemise I looked at bunch of different tutorials online, Vincent Brigg's blog was especially helpful!
One thing I used a pattern for was the grey/brown vest, which I made from Mccalls 8133. I worked in fabric store for years where I acquired a massive hoard of patterns but sadly I rarely use them.
currently in the library having the time of my life messing around with the manuscript maker instead of doing my readings. 1000 thank yous
what an absolute treat this manuscript maker is!! incredible comeback update
I finally worte something on my blog. I imagined I would be writing very deep philosophical essays but I'm writting about taters instead!
worte
Congratulations on your potato harvest! As someone who can't grow plants no matter what - I am very impressed!
ahh my bf harvested our potatoes last week! He has been making chips (thick fries?) from them, we have so many. if you leave them until the plant looks like it is dying, they can get a little bigger and the skin will harden up while they are still in the soil :) he did carrots too but ours were an early harvest crop so he harvested those a few weeks ago, so we have almost finished eating those now
rly enjoyed the blog post thank u for sharing
