Which,
> brings me to the next point... the project. Everyone needs to bring a
> project to work on: belt, quiver, pouch, sheath, roundel (a decoration to
be
> attached to something), buckler...etc.. Lets not get too fancy, keep it
> simple. If you have a special design you want to use: device, knotwork,
> initials.... please bring that as well.
>
> Leather belt blanks can be bought at the Leather Factory for $10-15. this
> makes a great project, and comes in very handy to cinch your tunics, hold
> your pouch, favors and various other items that we tend to collect and
hang
> from the waist.
>
> I will have some tools available for use at my house, but that is where
they
> MUST stay. After the first workshop we will be able to let you know what
> tools you will need for your project(not everyone will need the same
thing)
>
>
> This brings me to class 2.(This class will be postponed until April due to
> WAR) In this class we will be transferring your designs( if this has not
> already been done )and implementing the embellishing technique of your
> choice onto your project:stamping, punching,  tooling...
> Class 3 will be for finishing up the projects, and questions on
> documentation.
>
> **Remember there will be a mini A&S display at the following Moot,
populous
> choice and a prize to the winner.
>
>  I have had a couple of people say to me in passing they were looking
> forward to this class, and have had only 1 confirmation of attendance.
> Please contact me if you are planning on being here for the class.
>
> I can give you some project ideas if your not sure what you want to do.
