A New Leg Up -- Part 2








As promised!  The patterning for me was the most difficult part of making this piece of armor.  Having failed several times, due to lack of/vague instructions found on the internet, it finally occurred to me that my approach was all wrong. I just asked a friend on mine with a fashion degree, and he had an extra one laying around. Total cheat I know, but after 5 failed attempts to pattern out my own belt I felt I was due for a bit of help.The biggest problem was thinking it needed to sit lower on the hips like a pair of hip hugger jeans.  Nope!
Arming point: Front, leg.
