grande assiette, interpretive early to mid 15th century

[Dierick]

I dont have pics of it yet, still doing some sewing by hand to finish it up. I started it last weekend off a pattern from my last one over a year ago. Unfortunately I've gotten quite a bit larger across the chest and arms since joining the Marines and my old pattern does not fit. All I really have left is some sewing along the seams, but its all hand sewing and if there is no interest in this then its just going to end up in my never finished box. :p

My size is a 41 inch chest, 15 inch bicep, 31 inch waist. The grande assiette is tight in the bicep, and snug around the chest and waist(if worn like I planned, with a gap down the front). The collar is the only part that is quilted, like a farsetto. Outer layer is a dark blue and dark gold brocade in a floral pattern, backed by a heavy weight linen, lined with a light pale green fabric of some kind of synthetic and linen blend. Feels good against the skin, but I would suggest going with a linen undershirt as is period.

I don't plan on sewing any arming points or lacing points in it. Thats for whomever gets it.

Again, just seeing if there is any interest before I waste countless lunch hours sewing in my car to get it done.
