It was a lovely day at Crown on Saturday, October 8th, full of lovely garb, wonderful conversation and gifts. I was able to gift Rick his cuffs (celtic knotwork on red linen) as his birthday gift-they were finished on the trip down in the car. What is a roadtrip without sewing.
The other part of my garb was in repurposing. As most of my fabric is in storage, I took apart a silk/wool finnish overdress and turned it into a viking apron dress. The straps were card woven by my friend Dawn in a lovely green with a white fleck. The headdress was a lovely scarf I found a few years ago with metal embellishments from my friend Asny. I felt like a beautiful norse woman and was proud to have Magnus fight for me.
