This was a surprisingly difficult challenge considering the fact that I love yellow! Originally, I did have a yellow UFO that I was saving for this challenge but I decided it was a wadder. I had so many Elizabethan projects to do before the end of the faire that I didn't think I'd have any time to do anything. But then the weekend before faire, I decided that I needed a new petticoat since I turned my last one into a bodied petticoat. So I scurried off to Jo-Anns for some linen. Originally, I was eying some lovely green linen rayon but then I spied this golden yellow color and I knew it was meant to be! The Challenge: Yellow Fabric: 3 yds linen/rayon Pattern: none-it's just a rectangle pleated to a waistband Year: late 1500s Notions: thread, hook and eye How historically accurate is it? the rayon part not so much, but otherwise pretty good. Hours to complete: 3 hrs First worn: September 2014 to the renaissance festival Total cost: ~$20 Now, you may have noticed that I'm wearing the petticoat on the outside, which is definitely not where it is supposed to be. Originally, I was wearing it under my bodied petticoat but the bulk of the waistband was too uncomfortable so I decided to layer it on top. So really, I'm missing a lot of layers in this outfit but it's faire and I was still one of the most historically accurate people there. And maybe next time I will wear it as an actual petticoat!
