Viking apron dress #1: Complete!

[eveglass]

For those who were wondering, Viking apron dress #1 is finished! Yay! Well, not quite true: I've still got to finish all the seams. But that can wait. The important thing is that it's in a wearable state in time for Crown Tournament. Now if I could only figure out how to string the bead necklaces so that I can easily add and remove beads, I'd be golden.

Psst... anyone know how to string a Viking bead necklace so that I can add and remove beads easily and yet not have to worry about the beads falling off?

Precisely. For the linen tunics, one is a deep blue with a small check pattern (the blue would be just about right for woad on wool, but is much too dark for linen), and the other is a herringbone orange-and-lime-green, which surprisingly works perfectly with my green chemises (though I'm pretty sure that lime green is totally unperiod, and I have my doubts about bright orange).

Lime green? Hrmm... You make me want to experiment. :)
