Beautiful. The coral(?) necklace was perfect to bring out the colours of the undertunic. And, as always, I enjoy watching the different ways that people pattern and sew.

@OpusElenae I suppose for the Italians it'd be "la Guerra del Giorno che Termina con una Vocale" (the war of the day ending in a vowel. Saturday and Sunday are inconvenient for this format in Italian)
I love that teal, and that is such a pretty facing color!! And I’m very tempted to get one of those hem markers myself! Even without the distortion from hanging out bias, the difference in length needed to look even front vs back is so hard to predict!
I absolutely love how you used the pattern to make the facing! That was inspired! This cyclas is beautiful! A linen cyclas is a great idea for hot weather styling!
And now that I have watched, I like it even more. The colour combination is beautiful and unusual. I'm currently reading *Kristin Lavransdatter*, which is set in mediaeval Norway, and your finished outfit makes me think about some of the clothing descriptions in that book.
Great work! I watched this while working on extending the pockets on a pair of jeans. I could sew them in by machine, but it's easier to do it by hand with my chronic fatigue. Slower, but less spoons. Aren't bodies weird? 😂
I can so relate to the chronic fatigue! I have three autoimmune disorders that cause fatigue, and hypothyroidism, plus I now have Long COVID. Some days I can barely get food into me, let alone use my sewing machine. I love to hand sew, so will do that, by choice. Hope you find something that helps with your fatigue.
@leecarlson9713 Thank you. You, too! I'm seeing a specialist for my Long COVID and I highly recommend if you can find one. She's really helped so much.
Anxious for the styling but the teal linen is beautiful (my first historic linen pattern sew was teal linen). Hopefully it cools down soon so the event is pleasant.
So elegant ane lovely. I enjoy watching you work, and hearing the tips and auch about how to do it successfully. (Just water for me in the moment, having finished some homemade chai)
Have you considered making yourself a leather thimble? I saw you hand sewing that thick linen and winced thinking how it would hurt my fingers if it were me sewing it.
As a side note, your pattern weights look exactly like a biscuit (cookie) we have in the UK called Party Rings. Have you seen those? I found this video inspiring. Thank you!
No boom today? Where is G'Kar? Teal is my favourite colour. Armour and Castings has some brooches for the Cyclas? Is Partner getting a new outfit for Bucket War?
Good morning. Would it be appropriate to wear a belt over one's cyclas? I've worked hard for my protegee belt and would like for it to be seen. Thank you. Lilith of the Glass Isle, Barony of Nottinghill Coill, Kingdom of Atlantia
One day i will make a cyclas, hopefully soonish because it looks hella comfortable for pregnancy. Also Me, a sewist who should know better: that's a big seam allowance on the facing and all that clipping seems annoying and unnecessary Courtney: effortlessly folds and sews the facing Me: oh right.😅
Love your videos. I think I have seen most, if not all. The music during the reveal on this one seemed a bit discordant, and I had to turn the sound off to be able to watch the reveal. Sorry if the recorder was played by someone you know it was just too grating for me 😅
The music credits are always in the description, if you’re interested in them. I’m glad I don’t know the person who played that song; I wouldn’t want any of my musician friends to see that

Love my cyclas (have 4) and use them mundanely too. This week realised I nee a linen tunic - or gown. Time to raid my stash. Love your process!
This was a great tutorial. Now I am thinking that I want to make one for daily wear.

Probably not the most accurate account of a war; but if you told me some people starting a war over a bucket, I would not be surprised.
Especially the Italians
Ah Italian city-states, who can forget the Day That Ends In Y war?
@OpusElenae I suppose for the Italians it'd be "la Guerra del Giorno che Termina con una Vocale" (the war of the day ending in a vowel. Saturday and Sunday are inconvenient for this format in Italian)
Woo, the cyclas continues! 😂 (It's been my werewolf week, so my tea of choice was orange spice or chai mixed with raspberry leaf and honey.)
I love that teal, and that is such a pretty facing color!!
And I’m very tempted to get one of those hem markers myself! Even without the distortion from hanging out bias, the difference in length needed to look even front vs back is so hard to predict!
Highly recommend! I got mine from Wawak

I haven't had time to watch the whole video yet but I'm just popping into the comments to say that deep teal is absolutely stunning.

I have a mid elbow mid calf tunic out of a heavyweight black linen that is now a soft charcoal. And sooooo comfy!

Those colors all together in the reveal are so lovely!
Teal... lovely lovely teal.
I love the teal linen!
This is a genius way to figure out a pattern!
Beautiful! Love the colours together and how the turned out facing looks. Great video 💖
I, too, like those colors together. 🤩
@@DanielleStJohn I’m a sucker for teal and madder shades
@@OpusElenae Mood. Teal is my *jam*

A sacrifice for the algorithm gods

I have a metal needle; I don’t like the way leather ones feel.
That is so pretty!
I have a kirtle almost the same color as your undergown. It’s a counterchange red and yellow linen with a tisch of spandex. (5%)

Boom tomorrow! Partner is getting a new outfit for Yule; we’ll see if anything happens sooner than that…
@@OpusElenae will you be vlogging it? And thanks
@@susanpolastaples9688possibly, it depends on how much else I have to do during the event (the busier I am the harder it is to vlog) but I’ll try
@@OpusElenae Thanks
That headdress would be great to hide my turkey neck...
Wimples and barbettes are very flattering
And the men’s cyclas is basically the same with side slits.
Linen envy!! 😂
