And today I have some pictures of my new 14th century cyclas / sideless surcote with the completed “Meridian Cross” appliqué work for you. 🙂 I still didn’t find the time to put on my new 14th century cyclas / sideless surcote and to take pictures of me wearing it but I can assure you that I didn’t forget about it and that it is still on my to-do-list.

Yeah, it’s true and no typo – I made a 14th century cylas / sideless surcote for me! Or how I call the newest addition to my wardrobe: my 14th century “Meridian Cross Cyclas”! 😀 How come?

  I recently bought a run of octopus print fabric from Racaire’s Workshop. The piece is beautiful and it’s always a pleasure to business with a fellow artist. Anna’s attention to detail is amazing.

  I have followed Racaire's work for a decade. She is a true artist, and absolute magic with a needle! Her block printed fabrics are gobsmackingly gorgeous, with historically appropriate designs, and her embroidery and textile arts are without peer. Her historical research is spot on which is something this history geek truly appreciates. I recommend her work heartily! (and she's an awfully nice person to boot!)

  I've made 2 purchases from Racaire. both were of exceedingly high quality. She shipped fast and communicated quickly thru the whole process each time. I highly recommend her. I will go to her again when need arises without a doubt. Navah

  Racaire's knowledge & skill makes her one of the finest craftsmen of her generation. If you are in need of beautifully rendered, meticulously constructed, & well documented period garments, accessories, or advice for planning a period-themed event or production, you are in safe hands with Racaire.
