When those are done, I've finally settled on what I want to make for myself in the way of SCA clothing - proper Slavic dress for the 2nd Bulgarian Kingdom in the mid 13th century. I'll be working from fresco portraits in various churches and monasteries, beginning with the portrait of Boyarina Desislava from the Boyana Church in Sofia, which dates to just that time period.
I have an enlargement of the full portrait (got it at the church) in my home office, so I can see the details well. I'm starting with the cap, circlet, and veil. The project may take all year!
