I made a linen coif!

I hope you like it. Well, maybe not the end product, but at least the idea.

Yay for coifs, but uh, why the stripes and the big "G" on the side?

It would be better in navy and silver with a big star.

Yeah, she might not be embarassed to show her face then.

I dig it even though I am definitely NOT a Packers fan. I may steal your idea and make one in green and white after my boys beat the Colts yesterday.

Very nice modern use of a coif.

Good luck charm to get your team into the playoffs?

Actually, I went with the Packers because I happened to have the ugly yellow linen, white linen and forest green wool. I don't like the team but I always thought it would be funny to make something like this. So I used period materials with the colors I had.

I'd like to see a living history group that doesn't take themselves too seriously to take this idea and apply to their livery!

They kicked some major ass today.......If you happen to make another one I may be interested.

Quibble: that wouldn't be living history then.

That said.. nice implementation.

You could probably sell these, now. Especially since Iâ€™ve been trying to get to the Packer Pro Shop online with no success!

You know, Char, I just did it for the humor factor. If you would wish to profit from the idea you are more than welcome too. My sewing skills are in their fledgling stages but you are a master or mastress?

Benedek, for a total of $10 I'll let you have the coif. That's with the shipping figured in. A special just for you.

Score! It'll make the perfect accessory for the SB.
