AS #40 Camicia - for Spanish outfit

I have finally finished my latest camicia/smock. It is based on the Prato museum pattern again.

I used some cotton 'shirt material' I bought from Spotlight at least 15 years ago? ( I think - it has been there so long). I embroidered with silk Madiera thread, around the neckline. (aslo left over from another camicia).

This is to be worn with my 'Spanish' black linen dress.

.AS #35 Set of Italian Slashed Sleeves and buttons

The sleeves were made from left over linen. The buttons were made from stash crochet cotton and wooden beads. The loops were fingerknitted.

34. Black Spanish style hat 16thC. (3/11) based on drawings from Hispanic Costume 1480-1540. I bought this hat back int he 1980s and thought it would come in handy one day. That day has come! I used cord, ribbon, tassels and buttons from my stash. It is handsewn.

33. Sleeves for Linen dress remade: The bodice was pulled apart and relined with felt and canvas instead of buckram (which was a disaster) and new sleeves were added. All stash. (3/10)
