Jennie BatchelorHad some really lovely feedback today from an article I wrote for Embroidery Canada (published a few weeks back) about domestic embroidery in the eighteenth century and the patterns in the Lady’s Magazine. Still have to pinch myself that I get to work in this area and connect with so many talented makers. <a href="https://c18.masto.host/tags/needlework" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#needlework</a> <a href="https://c18.masto.host/tags/embroidery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#embroidery</a> <a href="https://c18.masto.host/tags/dresshistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dresshistory</a> <a href="https://c18.masto.host/tags/womenshistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#womenshistory</a> <a href="https://c18.masto.host/tags/georgian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#georgian</a>

Jennie BatchelorHow gorgeous is this? Love this recreation by Katherine Garrett Kirk of one of my favourite patterns from the Lady’s Magazine. This one is from 1775. It is for a work bag and you can see it and 200 others on my website Patterns of Perfection. <a href="https://c18.masto.host/tags/embroidery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#embroidery</a> <a href="https://c18.masto.host/tags/georgian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#georgian</a> <a href="https://c18.masto.host/tags/needlework" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#needlework</a> <a href="https://c18.masto.host/tags/ladysmag" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ladysmag</a> <a href="https://c18.masto.host/tags/dresshistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dresshistory</a>

Sami Kelsh is a tired bearI did these little fashion plates a few months ago, but there wasn’t a good time to post them together because wowee this lil painter got real busy. So here’s me remembering to share these two wearing a pair of fetching 18th century riding habits - such a good aesthetic, am I right?<a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/inkpainting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#inkpainting</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#art</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/fashionplate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fashionplate</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/18thcentury" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#18thcentury</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/fashionhistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fashionhistory</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/ofmd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ofmd</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/gentlebeard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gentlebeard</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/ourflagmeansdeath" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ourflagmeansdeath</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/dresshistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dresshistory</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/1700sfashion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#1700sfashion</a>

Sami Kelsh is a tired bearDay 30 of Stream Ink is Pattern! Printed textiles have been around for a VERY long time, and they had an Absolute Moment in 18th century Europe and North America, with all manner of lovely printed cottons, from complex multi-coloured florals if you could afford them, to simpler, single-colour patterns. This little rat lady has selected a charming calico with which to make a nice new jacket in her mantua-maker’s workshop.<a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#art</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/cute" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cute</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/whimsical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#whimsical</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/18thcentury" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#18thcentury</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/dresshistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dresshistory</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/history" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#history</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/fashionhistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fashionhistory</a>

Rebecca OldsAnyone interested in how 18th century staymakers (a specialism within the tailoring trade) drafted patterns -- I've filmed a series on how I do it, having studied with The School of Historical Dress and the Tailor Shop at Colonial Williamsburg. It's a very different way of looking at pattern drafting, especially in terms of engineering a shape on a squishy human body ... after several years of study, I think I'm getting the hang of it.<a href="https://youtu.be/0gAV3aIZSpE" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/0gAV3aIZSpE</a><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/18thcentury" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#18thcentury</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/dresshistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dresshistory</a>

Amy Clukey (she/her)Any scholar of <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/MaterialHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MaterialHistory</a> or <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/DressHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DressHistory</a> or <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/FiberArts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FiberArts</a> can tell you the value of antique textiles, and how most humanities scholars can tell you about how archives conceal as much as they reveal. Well, the same is true of recreation. Looking at an object, even using an object, cannot give you the kinds of knowledge that comes from making and remaking. That work is hard as fuck and there is so much failure along the way. So, so much failure, and so much reward. <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Quilts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Quilts</a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/quilting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#quilting</a>

Alex M BrightApparently there’s a historical dress and fashion community out there on Mastodon, so I thought I’d share the traditional viking apron dress I made to cosplay as a historical Loki/Sylvie. The shift and apron are linen, drafted by myself and hand sewn. The embroidery is hand sewn as well (I hate metallic floss). The pouch is hand knitted and wet-felted. I still have to finish making the circlet (with horns). <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/dresshistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dresshistory</a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/history" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#history</a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/marvel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#marvel</a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/cosplay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cosplay</a> <a href="https://nerdculture.de/tags/sewing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sewing</a>
