handsewn Viking inspired dress for Arts in the Park with slits on the sides to allow for breathability after
learning that cotton was not as breathable as originally thought to be.

Also in March 2023, Lord Lucius and I volunteered to help with an SCA demo at the High Desert Pirate
Garments inspired by the device colors for, myself, Lord Lucius, and his consort,

as for our Fall Crown Tournament garments. I found more trim at Spring Coronation 2023 for garments for Fall
Crown Tournament 2023 as inspired by the device colors for, myself, Lord Lucius, and his consort,
[[Alianora MacMahan|Lady Alianora MacMahan]]. Our Fall Crown Tournament 2023 garments  were also made from cotton, inspired
by Roman chitons, and the need to stay cool in the hot Las Vegas sun. Having excess fabric, and after watching
Cinderella and realizing our colors matched that of Cinderella’s stepfamily, I decided to make favors to go with
our garments as well.
Inspired by our device colors once again I made our garments for Spring Crown 2024 out of the unused device colors. As the tournament was set to be cold and rainy, additionally I made muffs to keep our hands warm out of the leftover fabrics.

At Altavia Anniversary 2023, I found more trim to pair with the brown and green plaid linen/rayon

September 2023. I bought the snake pins from Amazon and the beads, jewelry wire, and end bar from Joann’s

Fabric to make the festoons. Because I was only making an apron with the brown linen/rayon fabric, I decided
I had enough fabric to make a matching tunic (9) for Lord Lucius for Leif Erickson 2023. At Leif Erickson,
Duchess Staeina taught me some pointers on embroidery when I expressed my awe of her work and fueled
my plans for a future garment. The two embroidery pieces I created so far have a combination of stem,
outline, detached chain, chain, satin, split, long and short blending, and web stitching.

Having loved the feel of our linen outfits for Leif Erickson, I decided to experiment with facing/collar
shapes and make matching tunics for myself and Lord Lucius with the linen I bought on sale Joann’s
in June 2023 to wear at Dreiburgen Anniversary 2023.

I hand sewed all my personal garments using back stitching as I thought this would be the most

all the trim using a running stitch on the garments as well as I felt machine sewing would cause the thread to
be visible. All the t tunics (3, 7, 8, &amp; 11) follow the pattern provided by the Corvus War Band minus the shape
of the facing/collar.
 
===Inkle Looming===
In between making garments for events, I was also actively making belts just for fun. I made about
twelve belts before I decided to take it up a notch with tablet weaving, which did not work in my favor, at
which point, pick-up weaving was suggested to me by Baroness Amabel Radleigh. For inkle looming, I found a
picture online of the design I desired to make, watched a video on YouTube on how to warp a loom and how
to finish a project on the loom, and figured it out from there. For pick-up weaving, I found a website with
instructions on how to warp a loom for pick-up weaving and how pick-up weaving works, then proceeded to
warp a pattern from another picture I found online.
