Pretty, pretty blue...

I just finished my undertunic for Coronation. It's BLUE linen. The warp is a vibrant turquoise, and the weft is a strong blue-purple, giving a wonderful shimmer effect, and causing every crease and drape to be a different color of blue. There's nothing faded, greyed or darkened about it; this is an in-your-face blue. And it's comfortable.

That leaves only my sleeveless surcoat to built. I'm making an heraldic surcoat in my arms (see icon) in darker gold and cream damasks. That is, I'm going to try to make an heraldic surcoat. Wish me luck, all.
