Re: [h-cost] cloak or woman's outer garment for 15th century

2009-09-10 Thread Zuzana Kraemerova
Thanks to all for help! I think I'll take your advice and make an outer garment 
rather than cloak - I'm thinking of a wool houppelande - as a middle class 
woman I think I should make regular sleeves, not these huge ones one can see in 
for ex. Tres riches heures de duc de Berry. I'll bind the edges with fur, but I 
think entire full lining would be way too expensive for me (not to talk 
about the fact that I'll look like being pregnant) - do you think it's OK to 
make a houppelande without fur lining?

Thanks!

Zuzana

Yes, they are the same person.  Katie retired from the job I now  
hold, and her second husband is my colleague Gary Evans.

According to the Library of Congress Authority File, they are the  
same person.
