    Blockprinting & stamp cutting – my new obsessions…

    2020/01/14

    Some of you might be wondering what else I was up to besides my move from Kentucky to Florida and then our final move into our new home. Well, I would say that I embraced two new art forms completely – blockprinting & stamp cutting. And if I may say so, I think I got pretty good at it.

    Scriptorium – my secret 12th century scroll project – a Duchess scroll for Rhiannon of the Isle

    2017/12/03

    While I was writing about the beautiful Grant of Arms scroll made by Meuric ap Rhys, which I just recently received, I remembered that I didn’t post about my own most recent and very secret 12th century scroll project yet. 🙂 But now that my most recent and very secret scroll was officially given out during court at coronation, I can tell you more about it. I made a 12th century based and inspired Duchess scroll for Rhiannon, Our beloved (former) Queen of the beautiful Kingdom of Meridies. It is the second 12th century scroll I ever made! And – by the way – this scroll is the very first one…

    SCA – my beautiful “Grant of Arms” scroll made by Meuric ap Rhys

    2017/11/10

    Well, as it is certain now, my last posting about the beautiful “Grant of Arms” scroll which I received at the recent Meridian Grand Tournament fell victim to some technical difficulties and can’t be retrieved. Nevertheless I would like to share this beautiful scroll with you and therefore decided to repost a much shorter version of my initial posting. And here is the beautiful “Grant of Arms” scroll made by Meuric ap Rhys which I received:

    Meridian Grand Tournament – 09.2017 – photos are online! :D

    2017/10/04

    We are back from another awesome SCA event – the Meridian Grand Tournament! Like in the years before, we had a terrific time. I got to watch my husband fight in several tournaments as well as in the grand final tournament. We got to hang out with dear “old” friends and new friends which we just met. Yeah, my sweetheart and I enjoyed ourselves tremendously. And what makes this already amazing day even better is that Our beloved Majesties decided to bestow a “Grant of Arms” upon me during court.

    Meridian Spring Crown Tournament 2017 – photos are online! :D

    2017/05/31

    The last days I not only worked on getting rid of the Spring Crown Tournament aftermath  at home. I also worked my way through all the photos I took during the tournament. And here are some of my personal favorites: From afar as well as from up close is this pavilion set up quite impressive – all these banners, the tapestries in the background… *sigh* I really love this set up. But I am not quite sure to whom this pavilion, the tapestries and all the banners belong. However, this doesn’t dampen the great inspiration it provides for the future…

    Border Raids 2017 – photos are online… :)

    2017/05/31

    After getting rid of most of the Crown Tournament aftermath at home, I finally found the time to pick my most favorite picture taken at Border Raids in Tennessee two weeks ago: The Baron & Baroness of the Barony of Glaedenfeld are not only very handsome, they are also very nice and gentle. And they are definitely one of my favorite couples within the SCA. Yeah, I can’t help it, I am a helpless romantic… 🙂

    Yes, it’s true, now you can find me on Instagram too! And after taking a look at my rather new account, I just can’t believe how many pics I already posted there… *lol* One morning I woke up and simply decided to go with the time which meant to embrace yet another app. And to my utter amazement Instagram seems to be quite amusing despite its simplicity. Or maybe it’s just so nice to handle because it is such a rather simple app…

    my super secret project revealed: OvO pouch with medieval islamic inspired embroidery

    2017/05/03

    And finally a picture of the OvO pouch with the medieval islamic inspired embroidery which I put together for Gloria, my awesome mother-in-law. (OvO -> Order of the velvet Owl, Kingdom of Meridies, SCA) Yeah, this quite special piece of medieval islamic inspired embroidery was the super secret project on which I was working on from the first day of January until our favorite SCA event – Gulf Wars – in March. And at Gulf Wars Gloria finally got introduced into the Order of the velvet Owl. Just right before the knighting ceremony of her son, my dear husband. And not a moment too soon as keeping this project secret was killing me… 😉

    Scriptorium – my 12th century inspired knighting scroll & vigil book page for my husband :)

    2017/04/20

    And finally – last but not least – the 12th century inspired knighting scroll and vigil book page which I made for my husband’s knighting at Gulf Wars! Well, as you might already know, I consider the 12th century the one “true century”. However, I have to admit that I awfully neglected my beloved century when it comes to calligraphy and scrolls. Therefore I made the creation of his 12th century knighting scroll my very personal mission. And yes, I even learned two new styles for it. 😀

    Wooohoooo! My photos taken at the most recent SCA event “Glaedenfeld‘s Iris Faire 2017 – The Crumbs of War” are online! 😀 Glaedenfeld‘s Iris Faire has always been a great SCA event. And also this year my husband and I enjoyed ourselves tremendously. He participated in a lot of good heavy fighting on this day and he even won one of the tournaments. 🙂

    positive review  I'm blown away by the block printing on the scarf I received. The colors are vibrant, the fabric is soft, and the pattern matching is perfection. Racaire was quick to respond, and updated me along the way. My scarf was packaged beautifully, and I felt like I was opening a present. 100% will order again. ❤

    positive review  Racaire makes beautiful and period pieces from A-Z! My little family proudly owns three of her bags, which are extremely durable and gorgeous! My daughter (5 years old) even has her own sized bag! They go to every event with us and often I use mine as my purse in mundane life. Racaire will only make and sell items which will stand the test of time and is extremely detailed in everything she does. I recommend 10/10!
