Hedeby style
The hedeby style tunic is made from reddish orange and grey herringbone weave wool. It is based upon a find from
the Haithabu harbour.

The apron dress is made from orange twill wool and orange/white wool for the side panels. It is based upon a find from
the Haithabu harbour.

After seeing the actual finds I problably will makes some changes in the construction of the tunic and apron dress, when it's time to make new ones.
On my head I am wearing a silk orange kerchief,
a square cloth folded in half to form a triangle with the two ends knotted behind my head.
The two turtle brooches are made by Sir Raymond the Quiet.
Hanging from my brooches a necklace with glass, ceramic and metal beads.
