I taught my Middle Eastern garb classes for the first time in a number of years yesterday. I had a great time and the group of women gathered for the classes were positively lovely. I am especially thrilled to hear that some were inspired to start sewing because of the class!
My class is actually in two parts. The first is a sort of overview of what type of Middle and Near Eastern garb you see in the SCA and it includes tips on how to take some pieces from your own garb closet and make them more period. I will be teaching this class at Pennsic (Wednesday of War Week at 10am).
The second part of the class isn't really one I can teach at War, because it requires more time and things like cutting tables and sewing machines. But, in it I go into more detail about coats and construction and I help get people fitted for the garments.
The documents for both classes are below (and have been updated on Scribd as well, in the event you had previously pulled them from that source). If anyone opts to try to make a coat and needs help along the way, I can be reached at [email protected] ! :-)
