Hood in progress: lining - a photo on Flickriver

This is a fourteenth-century style hood that I am working on. The blue fabric is fine wool. I got this wool from the Wyewood "treasure chest"; once you have 5 service tokens for services done for the group, you can cash them in for an item in the chest. I found a yard or so of gorgeous wool and this is the project I am using it for.

The lining is pale butter yellow linen. Inspiration for doing the lining this way was from home.comcast.net/~beweave1/medievaltailor/demos_hood.html . The whole hood is handsewn including the lining -- it's actually really fast to do this by hand. I sewed the blue wool together in one evening's sewing and the yellow lining in another evening.

Still to do: buttons and buttonholes, and finishing all of the seams. The yellow strips at the bottom of the picture are where the buttons and buttonholes will be. I'll probably make the buttons out of the yellow linen.
