  • Historic Costuming Presented by Jill Harrison
    Historic Southern Indiana Interpretation Workshop, March 2-4, 1998 Historic Costuming Presented By Jill Harrison IMPRESSIONS Each of us makes an impression before ever saying a word. We size up visitors all the time, anticipating behavior from their age, clothing, and demeanor. What do they think of interpreters, disguised as we are in the threads of another time? While stressing the importance of historically accurate costuming (outfits) and accoutrements for first- person interpreters, there are many reasons compromises are made - perhaps a tight budget or lack of skilled construction personnel. Items such as shoes and eyeglasses are usually a sticking point when assembling a truly accurate outfit. It has been suggested that when visitors spot inaccurate details, interpreter credibility is downgraded and visitors launch into a frame of mind to find other inaccuracies. This may be true of visitors who are historical reenactors, buffs, or other interpreters. Most visitors, though, lack the heightened awareness to recognize the difference between authentic period detailing and the less-than-perfect substitutions. But everyone will notice a wristwatch, sunglasses, or tennis shoes. We have a responsibility to the public not to misrepresent the past; otherwise we are not preserving history but instead creating our own fiction and calling it the truth. Realistically, the appearance of the interpreter, our information base, our techniques, and our environment all affect the first-person experience. Historically accurate costuming perfection is laudable and reinforces academic credence. The minute details can be a springboard to important educational concepts; but the outfit is not the linchpin on which successful interpretation hangs.

  • British Regulars
    British Regulars The appearance of General Burgoyne's Army underwent a tremedous overhaul prior to their arrival at Ticonderoga in the summer of 1777. Their clothing was alterred due to events of the previous fall. In the fall of 1776 Captain John Paul Jones, patrolling the waters off the coast of Nova Scotia, captured the British merchant ship Mellish, destined for Canada and carrying much of the British Army's 1777 clothing supply. The capture of the Mellish would have profound effects on the appearance of the British Army in the following year. By the time General John Burgoyne assumed command of the army in early 1777, the regiments of his army were wearing clothing that was over a year old and had already seen an active season of campaigning. With no new clothing arriving for the troops by February 1777, steps were taken to modify and repair clothing for the upcoming campaign season. A General Order from Major General Phillips that appears in multiple orderly books at the beginning of February 1777 states: The Clothing for the several Regiments not being arriv'd, His Excellency the Commander in Chief allows the Commanding Officers of the Battalions to accommodate the present Clothing as shall be most convenient for the Men, and it is to be repaired so as to serve the Campaign until the new Clothing Arrives A subsequent order, noted in the orderly book of The Royal Regiment of Artillery in early March indicates further attempts at properly equipping the soldiers of the army for the upcoming campaign: 7th March, ...The Commissary to deliver to the Qr.

Norwood, Mass., U.S.A. ; 155688 PREFACE This book has been written primarily to meet a need arising from the introduction of the study of textiles into the curriculum of the high school. The aim has been, there- fore, to present the subject matter in a form sufficiently simple and interesting to be grasped readily by the high school student, without sacrificing essential facts. It has not seemed desirable to explain in detail the mechanism of the various machines used in modern textile industries, but rather to show the student that the fundamental principles of textile manufacture found in the simple machines of primitive times are unchanged in the highl}^ developed and complicated machinerj^ of to-day. Minor emphasis has been given to certain necessarily technical paragraphs by printing these in type of a smaller size than that used for the body of the text.

  • Gingham Chicken Scratch Cat Patterns Free Download Design Your CHICKEN SCRATCH EMBROIDERY Patterns with These 4 Stitches
    gingham chicken scratch cat patterns free download Design your CHICKEN SCRATCH EMBROIDERY Patterns with these 4 stitches. Chicken scratch embroidery – the name itself is so curious. Nothing to do with real chicken scratches of course. Unless you count the way you do embroidery or someone else judging it so. Mine does, especially when I tangle my threads midway. This chicken scratch, though, is beautiful and evenly done. The uniformity of stitches is part of the charm of this work. Chicken Scratch embroidery is a type of embroidery done on gingham fabric (Chequered fabric). The even squares of the gingham fabric form a pattern of its own for the work. The chicken scratch embroidery can make your finished gingham fabric look like you have added lace on top of it. There are many types of gingham fabric according to the size of the squares – some with small squares, some big, some with slightly oblong shaped squares. You will have to ensure that the gingham fabric you have has perfect squares for this embroidery to work. 4 stitches used in chicken scratch embroidery. 1. Double cross stitch ( Smyrna cross stitch) This is a cross stitch done twice over. 2 Straight running stitch. These stitches are done over the colored squares, leaving the white squares blank. 3 Woven circle stitch. This stitch is done by weaving thread under the running stitches to create the circle, usually on the white squares. 4 Loop stitch. This is another woven stitch with a straight stitch connecting two stitches. What kind of thread is used for chicken scratch embroidery? Usually, ordinary embroidery floss in white is used to do this embroidery.

  • Chicken Scratch Fabric
    GENERAL DIRECTIONS FOR CHICKEN SCRATCH FABRIC Chicken Scratch is usually worked on gingham check in order to give it the lacy appearance which has made it so popular. Any of the woven or printed ginghams can be used for working Chicken Scratch. When working with most of the 1/8 inch and 1/16 inch ginghams, all that I have found are rectangles and not squares. Therefore, before starting your work, you must determine the square count per inch of your gingham. If you do not deter- mine the count before you start, you may not cut enough material to Finish the design! With a ruler, count the number of squares in one inch of fabric from side to side, and then from top to bottom. On 1/8 inch checked gingham, you will usually find that you have eight checks from side to side (selvage to selvage) and seven checks from top to bottom. This will vary according to the size of the check of the gingham, and from manufacturer to manufacturer. Always measure to be safe! Once you have determined the number of checks per inch in the height and width of your fabric, then divide by the determined number into the stitch count of the design in order to determine the amount of fabric you need to cut. We generally recommend that you have eight (or sixteen) checks per inch for the width of the design. For example - the stitch count of the design that you want to work is 88 stitches wide and 77 stitches high.

D. Wilson, Director, and distributed in furtherance of the purposes of the coOperative agri­ cultural extension work provided for in the Act of Congress of May 8, 1914. TEXTILES What Every Homemaker Should Know By Marion Weller, Division of Home Economics INTRODUCTION The women of this country are realizing that an intelligent expenditure of the family income is necessary to efficient homemaking. An examination of household budgets, compil ed by investigators-the budgets of individuals and families living on the lowest incomes adequate for physical efficiency-reveals the fact that from 15 to 25 per cent of the income is spent for clothing and home furnishings. It is, moreover, a fact that women are increasingly the I direct retail purchasers; 90 per cent of the money spent for home maintenance , in this country is spent by women. The homemaker who is the purchaser of the clothing and household fabrics should, therefore, know how to buy eco­ I I nomically, and it is the purpose of this bulletin to give to her such in formation concerning textile fabrics as may be helpful in planning and buying for the household. " There was a time when the production of textiles or woven fabrics for the home was entirely within the home. Women were the creators of these utili­ ties and ' controlled the quality of the product. They knew when a piece of cloth was all wool and what grade of wool went into it.
