If you don't already know Nille Glaesel, you might yet know her clothes. Through years creating reconstructions for museums and re-enactment, she has made outfits for many of today's best-dressed Vikings. Her clothes are always distinguished by their elegant design and excellent workmanship. But this book is more than just a wonderful showcase for Nille's beautiful clothes. Through simple, easy-to-follow instructions, Nille shows how you can create these garments for yourself. In doing so, she puts her experience as a seamstress at your fingertips. Her careful instructions show the same attention to detail that makes her own work look like real clothes rather than mere theatrical mock-ups
