    Mission “Medieval Berlin” – the forgotten 14th century Queen from France

    2014/04/16

    As I promised, I already took a first look through my photos from Berlin. At the very first day I visited the “Tiergarten Berlin” (the zoo) and the nearby aquarium. Knowing that you would prefer to see some of my medieval photos first, I decided to skip this day for now and to start with day 2 and my very first museum visit. What shall I say – it was truly amazing! I already found some lovely medieval art at the very first museum I visited. I spend some hours looking through the medieval collection and took about 2.300 photos. Well, I admit that this count surprised me but I…

    14th century Floral Head Bands

    2014/04/07

    As some of you might have noticed over the last years, I really love visiting museums. And even more than visiting museums I love to take pictures of the beautiful medieval things on display in museums. Regardless if it is about medieval fabrics, medieval wood-work, medieval jewelry,… or medieval embroidery. You can take me to a museum and leave me alone in the medieval collection. I will happily entertain myself by taking several photos of nearly every medieval thing on display. It is especially dangerous to leave me alone with a good 12th century, 13th century or 14th century collection. Some of my friends already found out that I &…

    positive review  Racaire makes beautiful and period pieces from A-Z! My little family proudly owns three of her bags, which are extremely durable and gorgeous! My daughter (5 years old) even has her own sized bag! They go to every event with us and often I use mine as my purse in mundane life. Racaire will only make and sell items which will stand the test of time and is extremely detailed in everything she does. I recommend 10/10!

    positive review  She was amazing to work with, flexible to my needs, answered all of my questions, and has been just incredible. Not only is she talented and interesting but is a genuinely kind person. I got a new bag with my heraldry, for which I have received many compliments, and block stamps for my household. I will commission from her again.

  • positive review  In 2017, I had the distinct pleasure of having Racaire work on my coronation dress. Her seamstress skills are unmatched and she was a joy to work with. She made me feel like a Queen. 👑👸👑

Thank you for all the interest and questions about this beautiful and ancient technique. I had great fun teaching a little impromptu nalbinding hands on class at Meridian Grand Tournament ravel night......and as promised, here is my most favorite book about nalbinding: Nalbinding - What in the World is That? History and Technique of an Almost Forgotten Handicraft by Ulrike Claßen-BüttnerBtw. It is available on Amazon in English or German!💙🤍💙...and to share a little proud moment of mine with you - she even published two of my Nalbinding projects on page 106!...and last but not least, you can find my already finished nalbinded & hand embroidered caps here:https://www.racaire.com/product-category/nalbinding/#racaire #racairesworkshop #nalbinding #nålbinding #nadelbinden #needlebinding #needlecraft #needlework #wool #workingwithwool #woollove #woollover #cap #textilearts #textileart #needleart #handmade #artist #artistmade #oldcraft #oldcrafts #neckwarmer #cuffs #woolcuffs #hat #handembroidered #handembroiderywww.racaire.com ...
