PE - new to list

[Cherie Nolan]

Jennifer I some I ideas that isn't very period but it does give you a period look to your camp, plus it will be very easy for you to hull and set up plus stable. There is a
frame at wall mart that is a frame for I believe 89 or so dollars the pattern to cover it is easy It will look like a single center pin square after you are finished with
it. You can do sloped walls on it. I just made one for some body and it was really out standing in looks and no one will be able to tell that it was a frame. The roof was
10x10 and the foot space was 15 x15 with sloped walls. It was perfect for her because she was single and was also a kingdom seneschal. I had her device placed on the roof.
I am going to get me  a frame like that for myself we always have a lot of tents to set up so having one or two to set up that is easy to make and set up is really great.
The frame on it was with a cross bar at the roof, that was welded no plastics at the roof top. The corner was plastic but not the cheap stuff. The frame was easy to put
together as one person. Plus the whole frame can sit on the back sit of a car. 
If you need to pattern let me know. Marguerite
