me wearing the dress with the tippet added.
Blue Sun Linen Cote
This cote is the first cote that I didn't have issues putting in the sleeves. They always seem to give me a hard time. This dress has pewter buttons with the Ruantallan Baronial Arms on them. The dress still needs yellow tippet to finish it off.

Beading
Beaded Acorns
I have beaded acorns for everyone in the household and them sew them onto arm bands. They have to add the fringe though.

Beaded roses
I was asked by Mistress Gwenhwyfar to complete 3 of the beaded roses to be attached to a hood for Countess Geneviere. This was presented to her Excellency during the Coronation of Thorson and Svava, Oct 2004.

Personal Heraldic Cote
And this is me, with the dress completed.
Golden Oak Inn Heraldic Dress
Here's my household heraldic dress that I made for Ruantallan's Investiture. It's made of yellow and green linen with acorn pewter buttons on the sleeves of the yellow and the front of the green cotes. The oak tree was appliqued by hand on the front of the green cote.

SCA Projects

Lord Spurius' cape made for him for Crown. The applique is hand sewn as well as all the edging.
Felting
Here I am in the first steps of making felt. The first layer of roving.

All the layers of roving are now in their proper place
Felting
Adding the hot soapy water to the wool and the piece of fabric that I am using to help with the friction.

applique done
My Pelican, Master AEtheric, only received a pelican cloak and never received a cloak when he received his Laurel. So as a gift to him, I made him a Pelican/Laurel cloak. The wool that was felted in the previous pictures is what I used for the applique on the cloak. I presented it to him at GNE war a year after he took me on as a Protege
Black cote and white Surcote
Here I am at Northshield Crown Tournament, May 2008. I am wearing a black silk noil cotehardie with a white dupioni silk sideless surcote with mink fur trim along the bottom
Ryanne
I made a chemise, cote and sideless surcote for my demoiselle Ryanne of Blackwood. Here she is getting her Tygers' Cub.
TRM Andreas and Gabriella
Their Majesties Andreas and Gabiella at EKU Ruantallan, March 2009. Myself and a few ladies (see group picture in next frame) made this garb for them for EK 12th Night. HL Estela drafted the patterns and I completed Gabriella's red under dress and the black over dress. The beading was completed by Lady Zelina and the smocked chemise by Lady Griet.
The group shot
Here's the group of ladies that worked on the EK 12th night garb for their Majesties Andreas and Gabriella.
The Lady on the far right (my Mom) in the olive green silk noil cote hardie and Sideless surcote was also something that I created.
And no the baby in my arms is not mine, she had fallen asleep in my arms.
applique
My good friend Wolfgar (mka Dave) asked me to make him new clothes for Coronation in Northshield. This is the applique on the tunic. There is one on either side of the front slit. I am hoping to get a good picture of him with the garb on to post here as well.
Wolfgar's hose and shirt
And here he is showing off the hose that I made him, as well as the gitch and the white linen under shirt. He's not wearing the over tunic that I made him here that the applique from the previous pictures is on.

gold surcote
Here I am at Wolfgar's knighting in Northshield. The gold surcote that I am wearing was at one point in time an Italian Ren skirt that I made years ago for Mistress Gwen's Pelican ceremony, I only wore the once. So I took the skirt apart and then made it into a sideless surcote. It's made out of cotton brocade.
