    Racaire married her American crusader… :D

    2014/08/13

    Maybe you already heard the rumors and yes, they are true – Racaire finally married her American crusader. 😀 It took several months and steps but finally things are coming together. The visa process took rather long as well as preparing my stuff for the move to America. But finally I can see a light at the horizon.

    Racaire’s wedding cloak project – 12th century inspired patch #4 from the SCA Barony Montengarde in Avacal (Canada)

    2014/05/30

    It’s time again to show you another awesome patch I got for my wedding cloak project! I proudly present to you this beautiful embroidered patch for my 12th century wedding cloak project by courtesy of lady Sorcha de Lenche. It was hand embroidered by the lovely and very talented lady Sorcha de Lenche. Who is not only a very talented artisan but also a very kind and nice lady. She sent this beautiful hand embroidered wedding cloak patch from the SCA Barony Montengarde situated in the Principality of Avacal, a part of the mighty SCA Kingdom of An Tir. 😀

    My SCA scrolls and calligraphy for “Not So Grand 8” :D

    2014/04/28

    *Woooohoooo* It is monday! That means that the weekend and also the SCA event “Not So Grand 8” are over and I can show you my scrolls and my calligraphy for the event… 😀 I didn’t get to practice my “Bastarda” – my preferred calligraphy hand – very often during the last months therefore I very appreciated this small “scroll commission” of my lord. This is always a great opportunity for me to get creative and to play around. I had a lot of fun working at this scrolls. 😀 I made two scrolls on “Pergamenata” for the winner of the fighting and the winner of the A&S and 3 “Thank you scrolls” for…

    Embroidered patches for Racaires 12th century wedding dress project

    2014/02/15

    “Patches for Racaires 12th century wedding dress project” for my 12th century SCA wedding at Gulf Wars 2015  When we were planning my wedding dress, my sister Bella had a lovely idea for a great fun project: “Patches for Racaires 12th century wedding dress project” This project gives you the possibility to contribute an embroidered patch to my wedding cloak, an important part of my wedding dress ensemble. This way you can become a part of my “wedding dress project” and my wedding, if you like. Because the temperatures at Gulf Wars during the day are rather high, some of you may wonder why I want to make and wear…

    Racaire’s Embroidery & Needlework is back – a new year & fresh beginning…

    2014/02/14

    Happy Valentine day to you! 😀 I thought this special day would be perfect for the fresh re-beginning of “Racaire’s Embroidery & Needlework”. Yes, like some of you might have already noticed, my blog – Racaire’s Embroidery & Needlework – was down for some time. After nearly 9 years of blogging with ca. 2.300 postings, it was time for a fresh beginning. A new beginning with a “virgin” blog and the possibility to protect my photos/ work/ research from further misuse. Well, already about 4-5 years ago I started to run into my work/photos at other blogs and websites without references and/or links back to me at a rather regular…

    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

....and a little fun project for myself again...You probably know the problem - you find an absolutely sweet little dress but it just doesn't fit right - it is too short, the sleeves restrict movement,....Well, seems I finally found a good use for some of my vintage lace to add a cute border to the dress appropriate for my height and I slit the top of the short sleeve so I can actually raise my arms...Well, it will do now! I love it! Another thrift store dress saved!#racaire #polkadot #polkadotdress #vintagelove #vintagelace #thrifting #thriftstorefinds #thriftedstyle #slowfashionstyle #slowfashion #upcycle #upcycled #dressrescue ...
