Bobbin Lace Class Offered!


     THL Kassandra offers bobbin lace classes in her home. This hand-made art form twists and knots multiple threads over a supporting pillow into a strong lace suitable for garb and other items. Kassandra will start with simple designs and teach you the techniques to create a wide variety of patterns from both modern and period sources.
     Beginning students will be able to borrow pillows, bobbins and other equipment and supplies from the instructor free of charge.
     More advanced projects will include making your own lace pillow and bobbins for the cost of supplies.
     Instruction can be individual or for small groups.  Day or Evening classes available.  Contact  Kassandra for scheduling.

 Scribal Arts

The Scribal type folks are a little wrung out still from their outstanding efforts on the recently completed pages for the 40th year An Tir Domesday Book. So activities may be a little slow for a while. But please feel free to contact them for more info.

Instead of doing classes and having homework during Tourney Season, we will be gathering once a month to share ideas, talk, and force ourselves to practice at least a little every month. Classes will start again in the fall.

Everyone interested in the scribal arts are welcome. Location is still at the guest house.  e-mail for directions THL Mariette Devienne

 
A Real Treat for all!   Dragon's Laire's contribution to the  20th year An Tir Grete Boke or Doomsday Book of An Tir, a fine collaboration of the heraldic and scribal arts is available here View Pages.   (Pages from the 40th year version are expected here soon.)
