Guess what??? I actually sewed something this weekend with my sewing machine and my new foot. And the world didn't com crashing down. WOOOOOO! This means that I can get the 5/6 projects that are in various states of 'almost done', completed for pennsic. And after the procurement of a new iron, I have previously washed linen, ironed. Shit can get done!!!! WOOOPEEEE!!!!
Ahem. I mean yay.
Sugar
I am also working on the franken-bunny for war. I have the pieces of aluminum mesh cut and assembled into a basic rabbit shape... sorta. I have to get more so that I can create the body. The purpose is to create a armature that I can teach from. I can take it apart and show people the guts and use different period structural methods to cover the wire frame. So far this project is using 100% period methods and materials.
I am also working on a sugar paste shield project with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
klynn330 and siobhan1214 . We are going to be making small baronial shields for each of the guests of the Runnymede dinner. This will go at the place settings along with the menu scrolls.
Swabian dress
After war, I will be partnering with a bunch of folks here in the barony to work on a swabian dress for HRH. You can find the details and dress sketches here. For someone who hates beading, I've done a number of these dresses.
Foot
I have one. It looks like the other one now (well minus the pin still in it). Walking is happening. Well... more toddling than walking. And I still say walking is overrated, but is getting less so. I am a very impatient person.
Events
I will be going to a few. Maybe coronation, definitely river war, GGG. artisan's challenge, midrealm invasion phase two RUM and finally Yule. Not so bad after having taken most of Q2 off.
