I am half way through making a new dress based on the Hedaby fragment. =
It is beautiful. Flattering to the fuller figure, with little wastage =

    I dont know whether i should use the word Viking in referring to the =
women on this list or not.. butif i amin error..... sue me!  seriously =
though I would really like to know how women of the time period you =
cover  dressed I know about the apron dress with its brooches and  =
jewelery  pinned between the brooches.. Or at least that is how i have =
seen  them worn..  How accurate is that?

    As a Celt i have a working idea as to what a woman would wear, but =

to wear the dress of his culture  now and then. =20
