Grant of Arms scroll for Meridies :) – scroll #46

Grant of Arms detail

…and last but not least a “Grant of Arms” scroll for the Kingdom of Meridies – another SCA award…

I saw a really nice “period” picture and wanted to use it somehow and a Grant of Arms seemed like the right type of scroll… Yeah, I was really in the mood for a lot of “pen work” and had a lot of fun working at this scroll :)

I hope the recipient who gets or already got this Grant of Arms will like it as much as I do… :)

…and now, after I posted all the scrolls, my scriptorium is again as “up to date” as possible… 46 scrolls so far… heading towards 50… *bounce* …and now back to add more embroidery to my green wool dress :D

my AoA scrolls for Meridies :) – scrolls #34 – #39

AoA

During my stay in the Kingdom of Meridies my lovely sister Noel organized some scribal stuff for me because I unfortunately didn’t bring any nibs, ink,… with me but I really wanted to work at some scrolls and practise my “Batarde” hand :)

Noel was so nice to bring me some of her own stuff – including paper, nibs, ink,… – I was so glad and immediately started working at my first scroll for the Kingdom of Meridies which you can see at the picture – scroll #34 which you can also see below as well as some other AoA scrolls I made (well, not at the same day ;) ) – many thanks to my awesome sister Noel!!! Thank you sweety! :*

AoA scroll – last scroll for Drachenwald – scroll #33

AoAWell, this is the last scroll for the Kingdom of Drachenwald because I will soon move to the Kingdom of Meridies – no, I won’t stop with calligraphy and yay, I am still a member of the SCA *lol* – and therefore the next scrolls I will make will be for Meridies…

…but I agreed to make a last scroll when my friend Izabella asked me… so here it is – my last scroll for Drachenwald… I think this is a nice way to say good bye :)

…actually I made this scroll this week but because it is the last scroll I made for Drachenwald I give this scroll the number 33, before I start posting the scrolls which I already made for the Kingdom of Meridies:)

 

Siobhans Order of the Rose/County/Grant of Arms scroll – scroll #32 :)

Siobhans Order of the Rose:County:Grant of Arms scrollToday I recognized that I haven’t posted any of my scrolls here for quite a while now and because I was already working at my blog, I decided to alter this and to upload all scrolls – well, at least the ones of which I still have pics at my acer tablet or which I posted to my facebook fanpagebtw. here my folder at facebook.

Needless to say that I somehow lost track of how many scrolls I made till now so I just continue with the last number +1, therefore this scroll gets the number 32 :)

….soooooo, here a pic of the scroll for Siobhan – it combines an “Order of the Rose”, “County” and “Grant of Arms”. Sorry for the rather bad picture but I finished it shortly before I packed for Double Wars last year… didn’t think of taking a better picture… I am just glad that the whole text did fit on this page of pergamenata… *lol*

new “fun” project – my new SCA bag

data

 

…yesterdays “fun” project – my new SCA bag :-) …some years ago I got a nice textile bag for being part of the event crew and furthermore the pic on it – the two fighters you can see, was my first step on my way to becoming a scribe… – it was my picture for the event website… this bags were only available for the event staff and I really liked my bag and used it at nearly every event to carry my embroidery stuff around… but it finally started to look a little bit shabby… well, still having some leftovers of the berry colored wool I decided to make me a nice new bag for my next SCA events in Meridies and to recycle the nice picture of the textile bag … :-)
