Lady Cellach (in Tir Mara) suggested a group project at Pennsic, and she now has kits and instructions available to give out to anyone who is interested in participating. She will be attending the University event on Oct.6, and Coronation on Oct.13, or the kits can be mailed. Please read her description, which follows:
Greetings to all embroidery lovers, I submitted a project during a panel at Pennsic 41. The guild Mistress, Briony of Chatham suggested that I should present the project to our members on Athena's Thimble web site. The project consists of a wall hanging that once finished will be presented to the East Kingdom Crown. The wall hanging is a picturial alphabet. The letters derived from 15th and 16th century wood blocks. They have been simplified by the author for appliqué technique. We would work on 37 different blocks to complete the project. Some are letters, others are borders and separations. I thought it would be nice project to help get members more involved... One member, one block...What do you think ? Are you interested in participating? If so, send me an e-mail to cellachdonn@hotmail.com. You can also phone me at 450-667-1292 (ask for Norah) I will send you the instructions and the kit. Thank you for your participation. ALL FOR CROWN. Lady Cellach Donn inghean Mhic an Mhadaigh
