Mid-12th Century Corsage
Tonia – Recommended (page 79 – variation # 3)
As described in the book, a corsage is a “tight-fitting vest laced up the back; worn over bliaut”. This corsage was also made in October 2001. I made this one using pre-quilted cotton fabric, lined it with the flannel, used green braided trim around the neck, and hand beaded it with faux pearls. I am very satisfied with this costume piece, so much so that I have since made four more.
