<P>I agree that this is a wonderful project. I am not much with sewing on a machine, but do love to sew by hand. I look forward to working with you and the Barony on this project.</P>
<P>Now, on those lines..why stop there? There are many big and small projects that we can work on. Since Lady Catherine has proposed a somewhat (who am I kidding, it's BIG) large one, I shall throw out an idea for a small one. T-Tunics. I am sure with all of the activity lately that the Hospitaler's Chest could use a boost. We have in the past held a T-Tunic night/Beginning sewing class. I would like to see this again in the near future, if possible. My house is pretty small, so we would need a location and such..but whatcha think?</P>
<P>Also, since I am on a roll...where do we stand with classes for Populace? I have several ideas on classes I think would benefit/interest people. I know Lady Clarissima and Lord Lochlann have held yogurt cheese classes and I have held a bath salt class. Is there an interest for a refresher? Also, HE Kezia held a class on etiquette that I know I would like to see again. But why stop there? Lord Magnus did a class on Heraldry and Devices that I think would be enlightening! HE Crystal and Lady Ayla did a class on Stain Glass and of course Lady Isobail has done several on Gate and I believe is planning one on How to submit a bid for an event? I know I am missing loads of people, but I think you get the idea.</P>
<P>I will now take my coffee-induced behind back to quiet mode(yeah, right).</P>
<P>In service,</P>
