So this one I made for my friend Isabella de la Vega. I tried a few new things with this one, namely some very complicated shapes. Her device is a phoenix displayed, so that means lots of feathers and fire.

The time is 1:14am, and I rolled in about an hour ago. I know that as soon as my head hits the pillow I'm gonna sleep for a week, so I thought I'd share a little bit about how my first An Tir Crown level event went.
First up, it looked like I was going to stay home that weekend. Couldn't find a ride to the event, even if I walked on the ferry and got scooped up on the other side. So I send a text to my Laurel, Mu'allama Æringunnr Yrsudóttir asking her if she can bring some...

People say it is possible to love archery too much, but I choose not to listen to those people. For they are villians.
One of the things I've been doing around my local group is constructing archery bracers for people! Now I'm not exactly an expert leatherworker, but I bought some tools, read a few books and began my journey into, as my friend Owen put it, crafting from the flesh of beasts!
Ok first step is to get some leather...

Well, laying the foundation for what is to come here, eh? Well for starters, a bit of an introduction.
My SCA name is Rashid al-Qasim. I live in the Barony of Seagirt, Principality of Tir Righ, in the Kingdom of An Tir.

Link at the bottom of the page!), my persona is 12th century Egyptian Arab, and spend most of my times at events either talking about archery or...

As I start this journey officially and more involved I have started my first, own, customer pattern for a basic tunic dress. The process was not as scary as I first believed which is a relief. I have to make some adjustments which mean I need to make it larger but because of the ease of a block construction this will be simple. I look forward to being able to get a basic tunic dress pattern I may use and modify to my advantage. I can see how I can make a...

I have not really done much of this and will probably use it far and few between. I figure I am still at a beginning in my SCA life as I have been involved somewhat for four years, but have been busy with mundane life that I have not been able to be involved as much as I would like. I know I mention that a lot, but it seems to hold true to a point of being strangled at times. I would love to be as open and available as others, but alas my work, home, school, and three year...
