[Hellsgate] Fighter Practice

Wed Sep 18 10:16:50 PDT 2013

Lord Eric,

Please let me know if I can help.  I have a Featherweight that can sew
heavy material like a champ and I would be willing to make a trip to the
fabric district (really, twist my arm!) to pick up fabric.

Also, if anyone is interested in looking at a bolt of linen from
www.fabrics-store.com, it looks like a 20 yard bolt of the white is running
a bit over $150, and I'm pretty sure that would make hoods and body armor.
 White is good because it can be bleached too, although that's hard on the
fabric.

Anyway, PLEASE, let the folks who are down in the Barony area know how we
can help you.  Not *if* you need help, but *how* we can help.  Maybe
another silent auction at the Baronial fall event?
