Sometimes I machine embroider names, or messages, depending on who the project is for.
Boromir – Fellowship, Surcoat Begins
Surcoat patterned and cut – I’m going to add in the waist seam for strength and the decorative top stitching. I’ve also patterned the gambeson and acquired a horn and replica sword.
Next stage: Sourcing the other materials. To Goldhawk!
Boromir – Fellowship Outfit, Referencing
Building this alongside my Eowyn build (and a few million other projects) – Boromir’s outfit from Fellowship of the Ring. Photos sourced from AlleyCatScratch.com
This is the full costume, worn with his first cloak instead of the Lothlorien cloak.
Eowyn – Dernhelm, The Cloak Begins
This set was a bargain on eBay, badly listed with a low starting price so only cost me about £70 for this and a pair of chainmail leg pieces. I’ll be using the ‘stockings’ to extend the arms. I’ll also raise the slit in the front and back.
