    “Hey Conrad, let’s talk about fighting!” – Episode 2 – “Learning by adapting”

    2020/10/23

    Somewhere along the way over the years I discovered a remarkably interesting thing about training. Stay with me now, this is mind blowing stuff here. Not everyone’s body works the same. I know, crazy, right? Turns out it is true.

    “Hey Conrad, let’s talk about fighting!” – Episode 1 – “Getting Over Yourself”

    2020/10/10

    So my lovely wife and the proprietor of this webpage asked me to write for the page, about my experiences and helpful hints from reflections on my time in the medieval recreation hobby. Before I start and just jump right into it, I’ll introduce myself and explain where this advice is coming from. I’m known mostly as Conrad vom Schwarzwald, both in and out of the hobby group(s), more so than by my modern/real name, actually. I first started playing at the medieval lifestyle in 1995 in rural Kentucky. I was fresh out of high school and had absolutely zero direction in life when I first encountered the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA).…

  • positive review  She made a masque for me, and helped me pick color an design, then gift-wrapped (😍) it when I said it was a birthday present from me to me -- well constructed and as attractive as possible given what it is. I will definitely buy again. Kendra of the White Castle

    positive review  I have followed Racaire's work for a decade. She is a true artist, and absolute magic with a needle! Her block printed fabrics are gobsmackingly gorgeous, with historically appropriate designs, and her embroidery and textile arts are without peer. Her historical research is spot on which is something this history geek truly appreciates. I recommend her work heartily! (and she's an awfully nice person to boot!)

I just finished the handprinted reversible black & I just finished the handprinted reversible black & blue heavy linen hood/fencing mask hood cover commission with white warrior rabbit print! 🖤🐰🖤

The hood is custom made to a specific fencing mask size from two layers of heavy linen in black and blue. It is very interesting how the coarse heavy linen affects the print of the medieval inspired warrior bunny stamp which I cut for this special project.

The hood itself is fresh off the sewing machine and just got finished! It is custom made to a specific fencing mask size from two layers of heavy linen in black and blue. Tomorrow will come the fun part - the very first use of the very first medieval inspired warrior bunny stamp which I cut for this special project. I am already looking forward to using this fun stamp for the first time!
