Duchess Siobhan in 11th Cent Finnish costume. I think that when time allows, I would like to make ensembles for any number of cultures that are either contemporaries of the Vikings and with whom they had cultural exchanges. I would love to dabble with Slavic, Saxon and Finnish especially.
One of the most incredible portrayals I have seen of Finnish is Duchess Siobhan of Drachenwald. Her work is often based on grave finds and the execution is highly detailed and incredibly elegant.
Her blog can be found here:

And I also recommend looking at the photos she has in her Facebook albums: Facebook
Incredibly inspiring work!
