Toga toga toga...

Currently trying to sew together a republican 'Toga Praetexta' -- the type of toga carried by consulares -- the senators that had been or currently were consules. The _toga_ part isn't the bad thing, that's practically a white sheet of cloth, some 4x4 meters big. The bad part is the wide purple ribbon that is to be sewn onto the circular part of the toga. Some five meters of purple 'ribbon' out of a silk-like cloth to be torn into 30cm-wide strips , wrapped around the toga-cloth, and sewn into place. It's quite a chore smiley - sadface
