Fabric Play This Week!

Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, Seraq and I will be at the Port Ewen Reformed Church working in the craft room downstairs from 1:30 PM until around 4 PM. (Wednesday we will be back there by 6 PM!)

Seraq will be working on making patterns, and I will be working on ironing and sorting fabric, as well as other things.

If any of you are free at these times and wish to come help, that would be appreciated!

You may contact Seraq by text or phone at 405 696 6090 (although sometimes the phone doesn’t ring. Ornery thing!)

Hope to see you!

Come and help! We are doing prep work for the event on 9 December each Wednesday at A &S between now and then!

We will be downstairs, ironing, and folding and sorting fabric et al.

Also, we will be needing help with cooking, so look for Brigitte’s Posts about the where and when of that!

I still have not had any shire members come forward to help with clean up excepting for the same folks who are doing set up.

9 December – Event in Nordenhal

We’re Official!

Please come and help!

Followers of Peter the Dressmaker

Hosted by Shire of Nordenhal – Port Ewen, NY

Event date: December 9th, 2023

Event Last Modified: September 8th, 2023

Event details

Sartorial bliss among those who sew, snip, cut.  pin and trim shall fill the day as we embark on the quest to replenish the loaner garb of the Barony of Concordia of the Snows as well as outfitting children whose parental-type-units bring them to chose fabric and make an outfit.

The first track – working to provide a selection of garb to fit different sizes of folks who are new to the SCA, or who for any reason need to borrow clothing for an event in Concordia.  Fabric will be provided using the colors of their populace badge in order to help Concordia have a wish come true– Gold Key which presents a unified presentation and represents the Barony.  Clothing shall also be provided with populace badges made by Carrick MacSeáin.  This track will be organized by Seraq.

The second track – assistance for anyone who wishes to make a set of children’s garb for their own munchkin/s.  In this track, fabric will be provided to be chosen by the children.  This track will be organized by Rowan Orr.

A children’s embroidery class will be offered by Maestra Frigga, teaching a simple trim stitching for their garb.  Times TBA at the event.

Destashing – There will be a place to bring all that fabric/thread/trim that you once had plans for, but now need to shed.  Bring your flotsam to be utilized during the event.  Any destash not claimed for use during the day (exact time to be determined) will be rehomed.  A donation can be made here to help defray the cost of the event/dayboard.

If you can sew, please come help us!  You need only have basic skills to help, there will be skilled sewers as well who would love someone to help pin/cut/etcetera. 

Don’t sew? Gophers, tryers-on, helpers, musicians, wranglers, bards and clean up helpers are always welcomed.

Dayboard will be provided by Brigitte and crew.  Persons with food allergies should contact Brigitte no later than 15 November. 

The event is donation only.  In order to assist in correct portioning for the rolling dayboard/beverages, we ask that people offer us the courtesy of email reservations for the event.

Attendees may bring sewing machines/thread if they wish.  A few sewing machines will be available on a first come first served basis.
