I'm posting the first cuff that is complete from the set I'm making. I still haven't figured out if I'll keep them or gift it but I'm pretty sure I'll gift them to someone with a norse persona.
It's done on red linen and the threads are mainly silk or wool. I have used one orange cotton thread for accents as I was unable to find a suitable (and cost effective!) silk alternative. I will post pictures of the cuffs on the tunic when completed.
If you are looking for a nice addition to a tunic, cuffs are the way to go. You can also do a neck design to match or coordinate if you wish. I normally suggest doing cuffs or necks on a separate piece of fabric than the tunic. Reason? If you stain the tunic or ruin the tunic, you can remove the cuffs and move them to a new one. It took approx 11.5 hours to complete one cuff. Understand that I was not working at top speed so you can do it more quickly. You may notice one small part is not done. After I took the picture, I noticed it and have since fixed it.
