Pics or it didn't happen.

Mike W.:
All it is missing are the ties, but otherwise it is done.
 

Ian:
Nice job!  Nothing beats the sense of accomplishment when you complete a new piece of kit on your own!

Sir Wolf:
sweet. now for the ties. take a long piece of material that is an inch or wide and fold it in on itself. now sew it around the bottom of your coif and knot the ends that way when u pull it tight it pulls from the entire bottom of the coif not just the ends

Really?  I never knew that!  That makes a lot of sense.  Otherwise it just pulls the corners instead of really seats the coif on your head.  Learn something new every day...
