Blue and white floral pattern bowl with a matte glaze.
Interior of bowl with a bowl chinese character that I'm told means approximately Turnip. If it doesn't, I'd find it even funnier.
A bit patchy. No more blue and white work until I figure out cobalt washes.

Blue and white floral pattern on a small bowl
Blue and white pattern on a small bowl looking down into the white inside of bowl.
The original 16th century vase i based my blue and white floral pattern bowl.
Finished up the small bowl. Think it turned out quite nicely and not too bad compared to the 16th century piece I based the pattern off of.

A small bowl with red and black graphite drawings on it. Parts have started to have blue underglaze applied.
A small blue and white 16th century Turkish vase from the MET museum collection.
Trying my hand at a multiple colour floral pattern on a little bowl. It's inspired by a 16th century Turkish vase that's in the MET museum.
Wish me luck.

Leclerc mira 2 counter balance loom.
Soooo. This may have just happened.
I've always wanted to weave the material for one of my tents. Next big project might have been started.

Not bad for a non potter.
Made a candlestick with a 16th century Islamic vibe.
Need work on underglaze technique.

Small detail of either a sunshade or an aframe tent from an central Asian illumination. The tarp is blue with a semy of possibly gold stars, has black rope stress patches at the ends, and is held up with red ropes and red poles.
A blue tarp that is 7.5ft deep and 13 ft wide. A semy of white 8 pointed voided stars are being painted on surface.
Working on my blue sunshade, complete with a semy of 8 pointed voided stars (Populace badge of Tir Righ). Based on a small background detail of a 12th century illumination.

A scroll featuring a tent that incorporates details from my timurid disked bell. The scroll was for the Kingdom of An Tir's award for spiffy encampments. Its called the Righteous Rath.
My kalkan shield project complete with the rattan reeds, a sample of winding techniques, and the 4/8 cotton warp spools in royal blue, black, white, and mustard yellow.
Got a scroll for my tents/encampments, and I got started working on my Kalkan heraldic shield project.

Enjoyed an amazing #SCA event here in Adiantum. We celebrated Amergin's Revenge with a bardic and A&S Championship.
I also received my AoA!

A simple yet ornamental spiral bound kalkan shield in red and gold.
A sampler of possible binding techniques for rods. Using blue and white embroidery thread.
I am starting a new project that is adjacent to my reed screens. Kalkans.
A small domed shield made of spiral bound reeds/rods. There are a lot of them in museums, but not a lot about how to make them. Researching museum photos and starting trials on binds techniques.

At the very top of this image is a wonderful blue rectangular cloth with decoration functioning as an aframe awning/low open ended tent.
An extreme close-up of the awning.
So even before the next tent project I am going to jump ahead and do a blue awning for my disked bells encampment. Found what I think is a blue rectangle with decorations, red ropes, and poles. I think mine will be Azure, semi of 8 pointed voided stats argent.

The Riderless Horse ceremony of mourning here at September Crown. Ever since instituted this has helped us to grieve those we have lost in the year. Heartbreaking and something that An Tir Equestrians can contribute with love. Quigley and Prince and Helga and Drifa were amazing. #AnTir #sca
Felted wool hat number 2
Finished my felted hat. Will eventually replace the band, but it will do for now. The next hat I make will require a proper hat block, as the pot i used ended up a tad too big.

This horse mounted tent in red and blue is adorable, and might be my next tent.
Instead of a center pole design, the next tent will have a yurt ring, and vertical poles, much like in this illustration of a mongolian chegezi ger.
I have enough red and yellow canvas from previous tents / fabric stash to make a small tent.
Next possible tent could be based on this lovely example. Except no horses, and a yurt ring with poles I stead of a market umbrella.

My old blue tent pole, next to the new tent pole, next to the old black tent pole.
The three pole tops and bottom.
My 8ft red timurid empire tent pole while pretty wasn't up to snuff, so I decided to make a new pole.
3" sewer pipe and pillar style candle holders are what I'm using. Same technique I used for my 6ft tall white tomurid empire tent.
Go girthy or go home.

I may have a migraine that's trying to end me, but I can still sit on the couch with a cold cloth across my head and still felt some wool with my feet.

My new sunshade erected Eric side at a local tourney. The angle of the photo makes it look lopsided, but it is fine.
Side view of the sunshade showing a better view of the framework.
Took the new sunshade to the Barony of Lionsgate Champions Tourney. It worked out pretty nicely. I only have a few tie straps left to sew onto it.
I have no idea what I'm going to do with it, as it doesn't fit with my more Timurid persona. We'll under a hundred all in.

Ready for Egil's
All packed and loaded for another Egil's. Will hit the road early tomorrow for an event I make it to every year that I can. It was my first SCA event back in 1989. So it is also my persona's birthday! 36 eh? lol

The sunshade tarp is hung over its frame to dry after a 5:1 solution of naptha fuel and silicon had been applied.
So I just soaked the sunshade tarp in silicon dissolved in naptha.
Should dry clear and make the tarp full on waterproof.
If you try making your own silipoly tarp. Buy dishwasher gloves. Do not rely on latex gloves. My latex gloves broke, and I now have webbed fingers.
