Our Guild exists to promote the art and enjoyment of medieval and Renaissance needlework; to further our knowledge and develop our skills in different needlework styles -- and to have fun doing it! Anyone who wants to join us is welcome, and anyone who wants to receive our announcements is welcome to subscribe!
As needleworkers in the SCA, we study and live the history of needlework during the SCA's time period, and we use our creative skills to actually re-create the glory of another time. Knowledge of history increases our learning and appreciation of needlework, and our use of authentic period stitches, fabrics, threads and designs increases our understanding of history and of the achievements of the past.
The Guild sponsors regular classes and exhibitions at SCA West Kingdom events. We also meet at most of these events to do Guild business and to inspire ourselves with “show and tell.” In some years we have made presentations to Their Royal Majesties of the West, or taken on a Guild project for the year. In between events, we publish a newsletter four times a year.
