MadL Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Nice Cod piece . That naught be a cod piece That be me shark tooth pricker fer t' clean out me pecker, th' rum flows thick this time o' year ye know I am think'n o' stripping off th' leather from th' shell guard on me new Dutch cutlass, I read somewhere where someone found reference t' velvet being use'd and I think that would be nice. She be th' LAST one o' her kind that Windlass made, there aint be no more, but there is a another maker what now be make'n a Dutch style cutlass, a bit broader, heavier and with three blood grooves, I read mixed reviews about it so I was glad t' catch this last one from Windlass. Now I need t' find some fine period type silk t' re-do me let tie garters, or perhaps some other fancy pattern linen, but silk would be nice. I have a piece o' leather sew'd inside them so they don't bunch up during th' day and they don't slip pass'd me calfs. ~All skill be in vain if an angel pisses down th' barrel o' yer flintlock! So keep yer cutlass sharp, 'n keep her close! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheeky Actress Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Here is my lastest and greatest....and though this thread states..."You IN your garb" ...it is as close as I could get for now. The stays are the by the lovely hand of our very own Haunting Lily Alexander. The mantua gown is cream silk with brown and green silk embroidery. Petticoat is also silk - goldenrod is the color.

Captain Jim Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 In the beginning we all concentrated on getting our garb passable. Then folks started raising the bar, getting our garb merely historically accurate. Then you go and put the bar in another galaxy in a time far, far away, historically accurate and impossibly fashionable. You are hereby officially designated an FB, you and all of your accomplices.

Cheeky Actress Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Thank you LadyB, Rumba Rue, Mr. Tignor, Oderlesseye, and Captain Jim for you kind words. Yes, LadyB this is part of my warmer weather/summer attire. I had the intension of bringing it with me to Blackbeards, but I never finished it in time. Thank you Rumba! All you really need is to have great resources to find the best deals. The embroidery on the fabric, Mr. Tignor is not hand done. The fabric came that way I confess that I do have moments of madness...but I ain't that crazy! Thank you Oderlesseye. If ever we do have a chance to meet, a glass of fyne rum for you! Captain Jim, I will gladly wear my badge "FB License Number Six" with pride! As for a Jamaican sloop ..."cough...cough"...I know know nothing of such things..."cough".

Captain Jim Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 It’s a term of endearment made up of extreme envy mixed with approval and affection. It may have originated in Key West, PiP 2007, but it may have existed before that. It consists of calling someone a f***ing b**tard (or b**ch, in this case) in a most affectionate way because they have done something or made something that fills you with envy and pride of knowing a person that can do such a thing. It also has something to do with the whole "raising the bar" thing, knowing that one will now have to achieve a higher plane to stand in such august company. It’s a big, backhanded compliment.

Captain Jim Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 (edited) This is what I thought though I had no proof of it, not knowing if the term had been used before in such a fashion. If, in fact, the term originated in Key West then I must report that Mr. Jack was the first FB, owing to the ease with which he and his family adapted to Pyracy and looked so damn good doing it.

corsairsboutique Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 (edited) My gear has been through several different stages, thanks to bodice fit issues, weather, and sparks of creativity... Version 1ish. Ignore the bodice fit The cold weather version(with Commodore WeirdBeard) And the latest(with my friend Lady Molly in front of my shop) My bodice was made by Damsel In This Dress, the rest of the cloth parts were made by me. My leather is the work of Ashton Synn(Commodore WeirdBeard). If you couldnt tell, I kinda like roses :) Edited July 10, 2009 by corsairsboutique Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
