my belt is 2.5 inch wide, and my obi is about 5.25. From what I have seen in pictures, its not that far off. This said, it doesn't show. I will most likely re-dye the tabbards and obi so we actually see them better... after all that work on a simple piece of clothes, I'd like it to show a little more. I'd make it just a bit darker then the tunic.
Flour pouches from the 50s were made of cloth, yes. I was looking for a good cotton at fabric stores with no success when I visited my mom... she said "you want some old cotton?" :-D
Its about the size of a pillowcase. I had to select properly where to cut in order to use the maximum of the fabric.
as for the cris-cross t-shirts... I think I saw pictures of such a shirt before EP3... anyway, its the easy way out. Somewhen in january, I should come out with something. I was thinking about using a real undertunic, but simplicity is better... I already take about 25 minutes to put on the costume...
