Garb for Pennsic
Hello! Hi! My family is attending a week at Pennsic this year. We have little time to prep and a very tight budget for garb. I’m just looking for suggestions. Two females and three males. Easy to sew, basic stuff for the fellas. They want tunics and are makeshifting pants from old scrub pants and what we can scrounge up.
For the females of the house, I’m looking for whatever is closest to being naked 🤪😅 without being naked. I, personally, am so heat intolerant. I’m not very good with historical periods and whatnot. I don’t have a persona nailed down (mostly because I’m always scrambling to keep up with my family’s needs, I don’t have time to even think or research.)
I just want to be able to enjoy this as much as possible so that I can help my family that really wants this to happen enjoy it.
So yeah, EASY to sew, some kind of cheap fabric I can easily buy yards of, simple made dresses that can breath and flow. Our thrift stores aren’t spectacular. I’m not finding lots of linens and can’t afford lots of it new at the craft stores or online.
Ideas? Patterns! Tutorials! Anything you can send me! I know I’ll be spending most of my next five weeks sewing and especially on tunics for the guys, so the easier my stuff can be the better! Thank you!!!!
