Extreme Patterns are now available from Reconstructing History! 

My line of full size coif embroidery patterns is now on sale!  Each pattern is not just the embroidery, but the pattern for the finished article, too!  You get two kinds of pattern in one! 

Coming in November: Nightcaps and new historical notes with every pattern!

Reconstructing History also carries a wonderful range of meticulously researched historical patterns of their own,  and everything you need to embroider one of my patterns, such as paillettes, notions, and embroidery thread in silk and wool.  They also carry silk ribbon, corset reed, hemp rope, period pins, books, and a bunch of other great stuff.  It's one stop shopping for the re-enactor! 

Eadric the Potter is now carrying my coif patterns and accessories* at events.  Check out his Calendar for upcoming events.

*Includes knitted purses, lacing cords, and sometimes other items, such as hats. 



Since you're here, check out the Attack Laurel Campus Bookstore.
