I managed to volunteer for a retreat at church which is the same day as KASF. Guess I don't have to worry about Pentathalon this year.
I discovered FabicMart.com. They were having a super-sale on wool suiting, and I scored some lightweight "cornsilk"-colored herringbone twill. I thought it was a solid, but as it arrived today, I see that the warp and weft are different colors (white and 'cornsilk'). I keep putting 'cornsilk' in quotes because it looked like a warm butter yellow online, but is really a cool, almost greyish light yellow. Still, it's fine. I have 3 yards of 61" wide fabric. Some of it is destined for a new version of my Harley Psalter bag.
I'm trying laid and couched work in a wool version of the battle flag. Not sure I'm getting it right - do the laid threads go all the way across? I'm getting confused between what I'm seeing online and what I vaguely remember Mistress Aenor showing me, in between classes at a University, like four years ago. I will ask Baroness Janina, next I see her.
I found Heroic Age, a peer-reviewed free online journal specializing in early northwestern European studies. Since the Early Northern European Working Group starts meeting this month, this is a happy coincidence.
My church's annual women's retreat is always the first Saturday of March, so I have the same problem too. But KASF is down South, so it's less tempting for me anyway.
Working Group still on for Nov. 13?

Yep! I will send out an email today or tomorrow to those who RSVPed with the "how to park at Teleri's house" instructions.
