Barleycorn Scroll

Here is a photo of a scroll that was to be given at Barleycorn, but they weren't there so the name is blurred out, but this is embroidered scroll number two. I really need to give myself more time with these things.

Been busy, need to blog more

I have been busy as heck lately. And I feel bad I haven't blogged here since. I have done numerous scrolls and a banner. I have finished the first set of trim, and started the second set while I was at Pennsic. I should have the second set done in the next week. Then I have to work on trim that goes around the chest.

Here is what I have done, now I am missing one scroll I did for 12th night and another one for Birka, I keep forgetting to take photos of them.

Here is my friends Kris aoa she got at the Bardic Kings and Queens Competition of the East.



Here is a baronial award of the Pine for my friend Hobbe



Here is my table for the A&S Northern Lights competition, the first major and probablly the last competition I might enter



Here is a better photo of baby chuthulu and a bunch of his friends I made and gave out as tokens at Northern Lights



Here is the first of two Queen's Order of Courtesy that I did for Corination



Here is the second one



Here one of my scrolls I forgot to photograph, but here is the guy getting it, so you can see the back of the scroll



Here is the six foot banner I made for the East Kingdom fencers to use at Pennsic to unify them under one flag it was all hand sewn except the hemming along the outer most edge (ran out of room)



(fyi that is not my floor, but the boyfriends floor. Not that mine is much better, but he has cable and I was watchin' the tv while workin;)

I also did a scroll and AoA for Wars of Roses and a banner for a household I will try to find a photo somewhere.

Scrolls...

Ok, so now that things are working I can share the stuff I have been carrying around on my thumb drive for about two weeks now.

Here is the late period french scroll I did for the Great Northeastern War



And here is the Viking wood carved scroll that did not arrive on time, which sucked!!!



And though it did not come out as nice as I dreamed of...it was a first attempt at a dark background scroll, this is from a black book of hours...

Was working on the Great Northeastern War scroll I have last night, have to finish it off tonight. I figure at this point it takes about three nights to do a scroll (low to middle end) and four to five nights (high end). So I can plan things out a little better in the future. I usually though have to come up with a mock up before even sitting down or it will take longer than the times listed above.

Queen's favors are going well. I hoped to have them all done by Wednesday, originally going to mail them in, but I am going to give to the baron/baroness to turn it since it is their frist Pennsic as landed baron(ess) it would look good for them to turn them in. All together I think I have about 110-120 favors to turn over. Some emboridered (about 23-25) the rest painted by moi.

The Domesday is nowhere near finished I only have 15 or so names, so I think it should be cancelled. We did it once, and most of the names in this one were in the old one. It is kind of stupid at this point. But we will see what happens.If anything I think it should be a suppliment to the old one, not a whole new one. But that ismy opinion.

I have started on my blackwork research project. The only problem is most of the online photos suck and you can't see the patterns to draw up new ones...but I will keep working on it.
