blankets....wool blankets

Recommended Posts

have pillaged many wool coats from good will....

and i am wondering and perusing old paintings ( in books) to see if i can get an idea what one would see--- but i know since we are pirates we can have a mix of rich and then humble blankets...

i know from reading the calamitous 14th century, that blankets and pillows and such things were found many times in property lists and wills.. they existed.... but not always spoken in great detail unless it was a wealthy perrson....

anyone cite a few source?? anecdotes from other reading???

i am soooooooooooooooo psyched!!!!

although i waffle on pattern and design.... fear way too much not being PC.....

but all of my reading suggests that since i am not portraying a rich person, i can pretty much do as i please....
