Wil, your work is lovely! Very nice, even stitches. ;o> However, can you tell us more about how you 
made the stitch? I'm not sure if that's really herringbone, at least I've never seen true 
herringbone in 2 colors! It doesn't really matter, because what you did is perfectly acceptable 
anyway. Can't wait to see it in person next month. *(You are still coming to Maryland, right?) 

Pax,

My first real attempt at embroidery (sorry pics are blurry)

Is a simple single-strand herringbonelike this, used to trim a garment, 
appropriate for the 11th century? Herringbone appears on so many wood, bone, 
antler and metal items, I thought it was a pretty safe bet. Any tips for making 
my next piece more authentic?
