Starting At the Top

Schedule permitting, I'm planning to go to an event at the end of the month, and I'm hoping to have a full 10th century Polish outfit wearable for it. Can I get it all pulled together in two weeks? Stay tuned, because no one knows!

Step one was to make myself some temple rings. Between Wednesday and today I made four sets of varying styles, as well as wove two narrow bands and mounted two sets on them. A third, wider, band is still on my loom, but I should be able to finish it tonight.

All the wire and tools!


An Intro?

I'm horrible at talking about myself, but let's give this a try anyway! I'm Societally known as Andruta Jezofyna, or at least I will be once I get my name submitted and approved. My interests are all over the place, clothing and time period-wise, but I'm working on focusing on 10th century Poland for my main persona.

I was first introduced to the SCA in 2005 by a coworker, and dabbled off and on in the now defunct Canton of Forestgate in Mercer County, NJ. Life happened, and I fell out of things for a while. After getting married and moving across the river into PA, I decided I wanted to take a more serious try at things. So I joined up with the then-shire, now Barony of Buckland Cross in Bucks County, in July 2017.

The purpose of this blog is to keep track of the various projects and pursuits that catch my eye as I journey through the past!
