greenighs Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Aaarrr, being but a poor swabbie trying t' raise a herd of hungry seahorses on a graphic designer's salary (mine, alas), I considered Ebay fer me pirate accoutrements. Then I decided that it be better t' take it slow an' choose good stuff I'll not be 'shamed of later, than t'spend me silver on poor quality, cheap hollywood looks. So this year, I bought me tricorn from th' MacKay (four more weeks!) an' I'll pick up th' rest o' me gear as opportunity finds me. (I wouldn't have even started with the hat, 'cept for the party me & mates be giving in April, where I have t' look me best, if not authentic at all. An' besides, it be so purdy!) Problem is, being a woman o' bountiful curves as I be, an' holdin' no illusions as t' me place in society (I'm no Captain nor Lady fair, but an 'umble barnacle scraper lookin' fer a break), it's hard t' find practical sailor's kit that would fit! There ain't been a bodice yet could keep me girls at bay, and skirts ain't fit for haulin' cargo an' boarding enemy ships. So what's a seagal to do? Rope sandals, o'course, t' save me spendin' on stockins an' boots ... I'm trying t' find a pattern for a shirt an' short work jacket, an' some coarse linen so I can sew it meself, by hand. Would breeches be an option, rather than slops? The thought o' me in a pair o' slops brings t' mind a tall ship in a gale ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate Petee Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I don't know, slops are mighty cumfy. Is that how you spell comfy....cumfy? Oh well, they are easy to make too. You can make um longer or shorter as you like. The McKay makes some good hats doesn't he, the best out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kass Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Greenighs, my dear, there is hope. Step one is avoiding eBay at all costs (at least until you have a better idea of what's right and wrong, so you can avoid spending your hard-earned cash on junk). I don't know if you are a seamstress or know of someone who will sew for you, but I produce patterns for clothing from the Golden Age of Piracy. They are multisized 6-26 so to fit all manner of women, large and small. And there are men's patterns too if you choose to attire yourself like Bonny and Read. The first six of the thirteen patterns are listed on the Preorder section of my website. If you have any questions about them or anything else, feel free to PM me. If you post here, I may not read it quickly as I'm busy finishing up the first patterns which will ship on Monday morning! Building an Empire... one prickety stitch at a time!

I have a friend who sews, an' she can help me cut an' pin th' pieces, an' then I can hand sew fer authenticity (or as close as I can get). It's not that I want t' disguise melself as a man, because I'd never "pass," but it's pretty obvious that women didn't get t' do much pirating in pretty dresses an' heeled boots, an' I want t' learn real pirating, from tying knots t' loading cannon, t' bailing bilgewater. So, I'm gonna learn as much as I can, get th' skills together that could earn me a spot on a crew that would be willing t' suspend disbelief fer th' occassional raid. It's goin' t' take me a while, but I've got time. I'll order th' patterns as soon as me purse allows! Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
