  welcome to the group, Alyenora

  my tents are to the north of Steppes, but thats who I'm playing with now.
I, too, quilt (as does the Hospitaler of Steppes, L Katheryn. and do
embroidery.

  Because textiles are so very fragile, we have few pieces left to record
garments or accessories.  My first SCA cloke, was quilted. Silk lining, wool
batting and wool surface. I tended to shock everyone I touched, from static
electricity. : )    Chair covers, pillows, throws (lap quilts...events get
chilly in the cooler seasons) . I'm impressed that you're doing hand
quilting, although Jinny Byers says that she sews just as fast by hand, as
by machine (with those incredible intricate quilts that she wins shows with)
I'll look foreward to meeting you at the next war.

  Galen

    Greetings to all,

    I am Alyenora filia Rou (Joyce) from Crossrode Keep. I have just started
to get involved in working with various textile projects. Currently, I am
hand sewing a quilt and doing some tablet weaving whenever I can find the
time. My time period is 12th century Norman and any suggestions for projects
would be appreciated.

    Alyenora
