[Bryn-gwlad] Candlemas costume planning

[Joseph & Michelle Baiocchi]

I am not advanced when it comes to sewing (or costuming for that matter); I doubt that I even qualify as a beginner at this point.  Maybe a pre-beginner?  Barely-a-beginner?
   
  Anyway, I would still like to attend this class if I can.

  Hi,

I have been doing some research on clothing worn by Norse cultures around the time period we are using for our Candlemas Event (890 I think).  Since this is new area of study for me, I have virtually nothing that I can use from my fabric / jewelry / clothing stash that is appropriate for this event.  I have been looking for beads for a "Viking" bead necklace, and will be purchasing some beads for this purpose as well as going through my own personal stash.  My goal is to have a variety of beads, but most of the beads that I find come in strands that have many more than I need and if I purchased all the different kinds I want, I would have many, many beads that I might not use. 

I figure that I am not the only one in this predicament.  I would like to propose a bead swap where we bring in beads we no longer want to trade with others for beads we do.  I would like to do this at Populace in the Park sometime. 

If anyone is interested, please let me know, and we can try to coordinate a date.

I am also interested in hosting another themed Advanced Costuming Class, and would like to know if anyone would be interested in attending a class that is focused on "Viking" age clothing. 

Thank you for your time,

Elisabetta
