An effort in Largess

I have finally decided what I am going to do for my donation to the Fighter Auction prizes for Great Northern War. 

As the list keeper for this event it is also my role to procure the prizes which can often be a challenge.  If anyone else on this Nobles path would like to donate, I will be sure to pass on acknowledgement of your gift of Largess to our gracious Warden.

I have decided to make a couple of Sacoccia, (pockets) Most of us are always looking for some way of carrying items when in garb. These pockets are shown in late period Italian paintings and, in my opinion, are a much more convenient option than lugging a basket everywhere. 

They are worn in addition to a belt so do not take away from the aesthetics of garb, especially if they are made to match.
