In order to move "up" in the world, all you really need to do is make yourself better garb. So my first attempt in this arena is a gown out of muslin. The muslin version lets me figure out what I need to do to make the real one out of gold fabric.

I did finally finish the real one out of gold fabric, just in time for the debut of Alle Psallite (a singing group I joined) at the Ponte Alto Investiture (an SCA event)!

And I finally finished a cloak for a friend of mine. The basic pattern is the same one I used for my cloak, but I cut out armholes, and then added the "capelet" from a separate shawl pattern. Thanks to my new heavy duty sewing machine, I was even able to sew all the layers (cloak, capelet, and hood) of wool at the neckline by machine!

Another friend of mine was missing an important piece of garb to go with his existing outfit, so I made this shirt for him. (The shirt in the first picture was borrowed.) Hopefully I will have a chance to see the whole outfit together soon!
