Artisan's Row at Baron's Ball

[morgaina]

This year once again at the Barony of Wastekeep’s Annual ‘Baron Dyon’s Memorial Ball’, held on October 5-7th, have invited us to have and work in an Artisan’s Row. There was a lot of positive response last year. The Artisan’s row itself will just be on Saturday the 6th.

So if you are reading this, and even if you are not ;-) please, please come join us!!!! We had so much fun last year and want to repeat it. ornerie cooked in open air, Torvald beat on metal, mrq_laurellin made felt, there were jewelry, pottery, scribal arts happening too. We hoteled it, but camping is available on site.
If you just come hang out with us, we want you! daedin was invaluable support staff and official yarn unraveler last year.

More points to convince you:
The Royalty will be there.
Folk singer Alex Adams (formerly Heather Alexander) will be entertaining in the evening.
The autocrats are supportive and try to accommodate whatever we need.
If you are a fighter, or have fighters in your family there’s a war tourney going on.
People really appreciate it, the Inlands are trying to do more A&S activities, this is such an easy going and productive one. We really, really appreciate support from folks from the rest of the Kingdom.
The weather there is always good, pleasantly warm & comfortable.
Nice grass lawn and shade trees.
Much space to stretch out your projects.
My undying gratitude, I’m not above bribery, what can I do for you?

So...I'm thinking that you should consider developing a 15th/16th C. Italian persona named Morgaina Soprano.

;)

Hooray! I take this as you saying "Yes Godmother I'll be there." we can discuss details at Moot.

"Morgaina Soprano" humm, well I do love the garb and I have been wanting to work on maiolica more....

Now, don't go reading too much into it, there, ma'am. I have no plans to attend.

It's my birthday that weekend, and I'm considering taking myself to see Twelfth Night at the Seattle Rep. And I'm serious about a break from eventing.

*pout*
There goes my Godmother reputation. :-(

its on my calendar and the entrails suggest the planets may align....

would love to do some cooking again (perhaps something a BIT less ambitious this time ;)). if all I'm doing is a single dish, I can be self supporting, up to and including bringing my own reproduction fire box :). wait till you see this thing, its cuter than snot.

another thing is thta I may be able to finagle some of the pewterers guild to come. interested? they can do soapstone casting over an open fire (in which case, no fire for me, unless I can mooch some from Torvald again)

whee!

[copper-oxide.livejournal.com]

A new firebox? Pix thereof?
I'm going to bring my Torvald braiser.
It would be so great if the Pewterers would come too!!

Unfortunately, that's the same weekend as our sewing saturday. The Barony is renting a hall, and we're having a sewing day. It will be fun.

We are having an unsuccessful time getting together this year, darn :-(

That sounds like a lovely event and one that is worth supporting. =)

I have a crass commercial question for you. I am looking for amphorae and am told that you occasionally make them?

tjk_40 = Constance Davies in the SCA.

Hi Constance,
I do make amphoras.
I don't have any in stock, but could throw about any size & shape. My turn-around time isn't too fast due to the size of my new kiln and me back at work though, so it would be a bit of time.

If our team gets the bid this year, we're going to do this very thing at Egils. Really. Come and play with us!

[copper-oxide.livejournal.com]

I remember your brainstorming post a few months ago on it and the possibilities sound so exciting.
Heck of a long drive for me when I have to be back to work Tuesday. But worth considering.

A thought

Perhaps someone from your neck o' the woods could give you a ride?

It's also on Canuckian Thanksgiving weekend. :(

[copper-oxide.livejournal.com]

Are you going out of town to visit for it?

[taisiia.livejournal.com]

I'm going out of country for it. :)

(My folx live in Victoria.)

Well, I guess I won't nag you about coming then ;-) others may not get off this easy.
I hope they are all wonderful cooks!
