This and that
2007-07-07 07:17 pmEmbroidery on the gift set is continuing apace. I have soon done the outside lap once around (it needs twice around to be complete) and I think I like it. I'm using the same linen that I know Ingrid will be using for her shirt, and I am going over 2 threads. It's an even-weave, although a bit coarse.
The collar embroidery will be two mirrored rows of the design, whereas I am contemplating doing just the single line for the cuffs. There is also the option of doing the same design, just shorter for cuffs, just for s-n-g:s, but I don't know yet.
Also, I seem to have ordered cotton duck for pavilion making. They'll be calling me when it gets in, and it'll take a week or two. Eep. Eep! *breathes into a paper bag* It'llbefineI'msureofit - eventually.
I also acquired a new air mattress today. The nice thick kind with a velvety top surface. Lovely.
Other SCA related news? Nothing much; still waiting for confirmation my scroll's been sent off to Maximilian and Margerite, and still unsure of exact transportation details to and from Visby MTV (Medeltidsveckan).
