So, I do (American) Civil War re-enacting. Its sort of down on my list of hobbies, doesn't take a top priority in terms of new projects and so on, so it won't make many appearances on this blag. However, this week I finally got around to adding 5th corps markings to my uniform, ie a red Maltese cross which my wife sewed to the top of my hat. Also, I have begun practicing the bugle. My plan is to practice until I can "figure out" some of the 19th century bugle commands by ear. So far, all I've figured out is, my cats
hate bugle calls.
Love the cross! Was it a patch that Rachel sewed on, or did she embroider it?
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the Bugle; you have a few weeks to master it! The poor cats have no choice but to sit back and wait for the cacophony of noise to stop!
It was cut from a scrap piece and then sewn on.
