Thank you for posting this! My husband asked me to make him a Hobbit-style Dwarf costume (to match my Hobbit one) and I was intimidated by the idea of making a vest/jacket of high complexity on top of his tunic. But you have made it so very accessible by walking us through the steps, one by one. Thank you so much! 🎉
Love that sunburst stitch lines idea, I may use that if I ever make my own gambeson. Not lke it matters, it'll be under my armour where nobody will see, but *I* will feel cute under my armour!
Wonderful and totally wearable as a very beautiful winter coat! When I was young, I loved Romeo's doublet in Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juliet. If I'd had one, I'd have worn it with jeans, boots, and a linen shirt! Beautiful clothes don't have to only be for the stage or cosplay! You've reminded us of that.
