Allan1313's WIP
OK guys I am new to these parts but have been doing a bit of research for the last few weeks. Thought I would share what I am doing so that if its wrong you guys can steer me in the right direction.
I plan on doing the robes with the help of my amateur seamstress Aunt.
Inner robe: for the inner robe I will be using McCall's 2060 pattern. This is the fabric I plan on buying for it- https://www.onlinefabricstore.net/burgu ... abric-.htm. I will be using that fabric for the lining on the outer robe, sash, and gloves.
Outer robe: I will be using the pattern that is on this site for the AOTC outer robe with the 2 slits. Here is the fabric I plan on using - http://www.syfabrics.com/View.aspx/Plus ... et/689/264
I will also be making my own force pike. I am gathering supplies for that.
I am still trying to find boots. It been tough finding something that doesn't break the bank and comes in size 13.
The helmet I am leaning toward a Lukannon armory one because he does such great work and its fully painted and ready to go. He has a run coming soon.
That's where I am at, let me know if anything is not going to work. Thanks

Re: Allan1313's WIP
Hey guys I am running into a bit of a problem here. I am 6'2" tall and am having an issues with the patterns. When I blow them up to my size the width of the patterns is too wide for sources found on the internet. Most commercially available sources have 44-45" or 58-60" width available. Based on these patterns I would need a width of 62-63". Has anyone dealt with this before?
TIA

Re: Allan1313's WIP
If you half the Pattern in the triangles and run a seam up that, That will give you the width along with giving you a fold for the robe.

Re: Allan1313's WIP
That was going to me my next question. If I half the triangles it will be no problem. I was just worried that the extra seams wouldn't be acceptable, but it seems it will be fine.

No onto modifying the patterns.

Re: Allan1313's WIP
Just do a mock up with broad cloth. We can then look at the build thete to give more follow up.

Re: Allan1313's WIP
Sounds good. Thanks for all the help.
I am trying to locate some 60" wide velvet. Would any of these work? If so I can order up some swatches to really check the color.

Re: Allan1313's WIP
Any of these swatches will work. Alot of it comes down to your price point on the velvet.

Isn't that the truth. I am going to keep digging, but I will order those swatches to check them out.LuciousTalvloinne wrote:Any of these swatches will work. Alot of it comes down to your price point on the velvet.
