15th-16th C. Lectern / Music Stand

February 9, 2011 raisedheels 2 Comments

I just posted a new project writeup on a 15th-16th C. Lectern / Music Stand. This lectern was completed in March of 2008, also in an attempt to take over the world; sadly, the attempt was only partially successful. =) Enjoy!

16th C. Shoes – Black and White!

February 9, 2011 raisedheels Leave a comment


I just wanted to share a pair of shoes that I crafted for Sarah Wydville back in 2007 – these are cowhide uppers and outsoles, lined with silk taffeta, and stitched with linen thread. The stitching is actually very fine – it is as fine, if not finer, than many examples in the 16th C.

I just posted some information on some 15th C. Long Benches. These benches were completed in April of 2008 in an attempt to take over the world; sadly, the attempt was only partially successful. =) Enjoy!

Take a look at the chopines I made for the Bata back in November of 2010 – I love the fabric and the colors!
