Bloggers doing very cool medieval stuff:
LJ user maxlu179 eg hend sewn tent and 13th C pouch
LJ user mikkelf84 doing some very cool leather working eg needle case, dice cups and a pouch. He has since moved to another blog shared with several of the others that I'll link to here with some cool stuff such as Birka Wallet and a replica (and photos of the original) of the Helgeansholmen purse (14th C).
LJ user louiseschelde also at haandkraft, doing some very cool clothing, dying and naalbinding. eg a very nice gambeson her brother has sewn.
medievalartcraft.blogspot.com for iconography painting and lots of german brickstitch patterns. eg very cool strapwork pattern brickstiched purse
Taschen for a blog specifically about medieval purses and some more of the german brickwork embroidery.
Togs from Bogs which I have probably linked to previously. She has fairly recently posted about an upcoming book of interest: Medieval Garments Reconstructed: Norse Clothing Patterns by Else Ostergard, Anna Norgard and Lilli Fransen, translated by Shelly Nordtorp-Madson. David Brown Books Co describes it thus:
Due to come out in original Danish and translated English in Dec 2009.
And some other random links (also generally medieval):
Mittelalder Mobel for replica medieval wood furniture.
History undressed - random assortment, but what caught my eye was the guest post on making a Regency Era gown
Probably time to get on with the actual cleaning I was going to start about an hour ago...
