The fabric was a wonderful birthday present given to me by a dear friend many years ago and in memory of her I have saved every little scarp of the fabric, and used it in a variety of projects
This style of surcoat can be found in several manuscripts from the period including the Codex Manesse http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codex_Manesse ( 1304-1340)
It is a simple to make yet very elegant style and comfortable as well.
These beautiful photographs were taken by the talented Wendy Spicer at our farm.
