Caidans on Facebook were asked to tell us, "If it Weren't for the SCA I'd never..."

==A-E==
===From [[Alice Tredewell]]===
If it wasn't for the SCA, I'd never have learned that I could sew a garment without a pattern. (It took me 40 years of sewing to realize that!).

===From [[Aliskye Rosel]]===
If it wasn't for the SCA, I'd never have gotten into painting. I'd never have developed an interest in the amazing art of illuminated manuscripts, or painted on vellum, with paints that I made from scratch, tried cutting a quill or making a paintbrush. I'd never have visited a number of museums with manuscript collections (well, I might have, but I would have skipped the manuscript rooms :) I'd never have had the courage to show my art to an audience or speak in front of a crowd the size our our coronations in praise of my fellow scribes. Thank you, SCA!

===From [[Jared Alexandre Blaydeaux]]===
Well, let's see. I'd never have learned embroidery, counted cross-stitch, bargello, gold laid work or to sew at all. I'd never have learned court OR country dancing. I'd never have learned how to swing a sword, plan a battle, or make armor. I'd never have made feasts for 300 people. I learned more about history than I ever did in college. I bought way more books than I probably would have

There are people I'd never have met that I count as family, and that would have been the biggest loss.

===From [[Lachlan of Cromarty]]===
...I'd never have had an occasion worthy of an occasional roll.

==P-T==
===From [[Sarah Minet]]===
...would never have learned insular miniscule, run a coronation, helped people design heraldry, been fed by a king, or married my amazing husband of 20 years.
