Event: Bryn Gwlad 30th Year

I actually got to go out to SCA! Hooray! Rachel and I day tripped the Bryn Gwlad 30th year event and it was lots of fun :) Life is finally settling down a little, and this is the first SCA anything I've made it out to in a long while. It was my first camping event since I've moved to Ansteorra and I'm glad I got to go. The site was wonderful, the people friendly, and the event smoothly run.

I'm at a strange point on projects where I have several in the pipes, but none finished recently. On the bright side, I'm making progress on several fronts and will have some stuff done soon. Some random things I'm working on
Armor:

  • Coat of plates: Front and back finished, side plates cut. I need to rivet the side plates and finish the buckles.
  • Helm: My $10 helm is starting to look like a $20 helm ;) I've ground off the worst of the crud and need to work on the finishing.

Embroidery:

  • Finished pattern for next critters and need to transfer it to fabric.
  • Nearly finished with brickwork for a small notebook cover.
  • Nearly finished with stitching up the next pattern.
  • Need to finish sewing up gold work scissors case.


All of which only leaves you with the promises of pretty pictures in the future, but no pretty pictures today.
