Suze's Sashes and Stashes

Hand woven sashes, straps, twined bags and miscellany for discriminating
re-enactors and lovers of things handmade. We were a homeschooling family.

I started participating in Living History in 2003. Our three sons had been in boy scouts and our three daughters tried girl scouts, but werent satisfied with the program. We had visited state parks and historic sites. We loved the reenactments. Wormsloe site offered a Jr. Ranger program. The kids had a ball. When they offered the opportunity to participate, dressed out in colonial fashion, we jump

ed on that! By the next scheduled event, we were all participating. We never looked back. I made cornhusk dolls for awhile.Soon I longed to do something more and it led to weaving. I have been obsessed ever since. I weave primarily sashes, garters, and powderhorn straps using h**p, wool, linen as main textiles. But I do not limit myself to only period applications. Garters /legtie/moc ties/hatbands start at 30.00. Sashes start at 40.00 for 1 1/4" singlewrap widths and doublewrap lengths start at 80.00. My looms generally tolerate up to 3" widths. However the shorter sashes that use the fringe to tie can be wider. I do plain warp faced weaving and pick up weaving which allows for a more intricate design. I also twine bags and tumplines, occasionally. Ask me about custom orders. Much of what I post are already sold for custom orders, but not all. Facebook limits my reach if I post prices and do not pay their extortion fee, so I dont usually post prices, but just message me. also if you have any questions. If I cannot do what you need, I will try to assist you in finding an artisan to fulfill your request. I will always do my best for you.It is an honor to weave for people and not taken lightly. I will treat you with the respect with which I wish to be treated and desire the experience to be a blessing to you. I hope to hear from you. God bless.

What to do with those modern water bottles? Or a reticule that can be made in most colors or simply in jute. Nice to have a few in different sizes for stashing incongruous items or general utility
use.

Woven Bags and Pouches

Bear with me friends, this is my first try. But I wanted to share these with more than the still shots. They are great little bags and sturdy since they are made from handwoven straps sewn together with linen thread. The factory has since closed, but operated in "our" time period.

Wool turtle neck pouch. For auction at primitive trade blanket auction page. Until Friday.

These little pouches are so handy. Made of repurposed remnants, they can be worn on belt, or hung where most useful to you. My loom helper ( shown) is indispensable. Some are large enough for phones, small talismans,keys and cash.

Wool sashes. Available.

Powderhorn straps. 1. Black and natural hemp/wool 1 1/2" x 51" 2. Jute 1 1/2" x 43" 3. Jute. Turquoise and dk blue 1 3/4" x 47" 4. Wool black, white, maroon with light green pick up design 1 5/8"x 53"

A sampling of 1 1/2" width sashes, various lengths.Available.

These are a few sashes I have available in the approx 2" width. They are in more subdued tones.

This hemp and jute powderhorn strap is strong enough to be a gun sling and versatile enough to be a strap for a gourd or canteen. It has a diamond and a floral pattern woven in and has chocolate deerskin ends and a hand cut thong. It is for sale.

This is a tobacco pouch. It is made of golden deerskin. The flap is beaded in black and red. As you may see, a commercial tobacco pouch fits nicely. Alternately, a snack size ziplock bag fits nicely. It is closed by a deerskin thong.

I made the first three trees this weekend. They are made with jute and wool on a wooden embroidery hoop. They can be accessorized with crystals for an amazing sun catcher or as wall decor, unadorned.

Finished?

These are some small bags, perfect for phone or iPod, pebbles, plant bits, talisman.

These are some bags in stock right now. For a variety of uses.

Colonial Faire and Muster 2017. Wormsloe. What a fine weekend.
