Newest Project

So, this is the newest project I have started.

Materials:
Linen fabric
Cotton DMC embroidery thread

I use cotton thread on garb for friends that tend to wash and wear the pieces often. These pieces of clothing tend to take a greater beating (IE: fighter tunics, etc) and I have found it to be stouter in dealing with the punishment the piece of clothing goes through.
 Also, being on a tight budget, the amount of silk thread I would need for the projects would be more than I can afford at the moment. So, I make do. I know what was used in period, I just have to work in my budget.
The finished product will be revealed in a few weeks. But Ill post updates on this embroidery. 
Cheers!
