I just posted a new project writeup on a 15th-16th C. Lectern / Music Stand. This lectern was completed in March of 2008, also in an attempt to take over the world; sadly, the attempt was only partially successful. =) Enjoy!
I just posted some information on some 15th C. Long Benches. These benches were completed in April of 2008 in an attempt to take over the world; sadly, the attempt was only partially successful. =) Enjoy!
These are a pair of turn-welt shoes that I made for the very lovely Sarah Goodman =) They’re standard turn shoes, and like many turn shoes, there is a rand (a thin strip of leather) between the upper and the sole. However, in this case, the rand is not trimmed off after turning – instead, another sole is stitched onto it to make the sole more resistant to wear. Additionally, I can simply re-sole the shoes without any turning if the soles wear down. I want to make all my later medieval shoes like this!
