AI saw this post on another group I'm on and thought to pass it
along. I went there and checked it out. WOW they have a huge
selection. I just made a few purchases that I'm sure will have my
Hubby-to-Be mad at me...

-Gigi


And my eyeballs are about to fall out.
I listed books in the following categories ; Costuming, weaving,
needlecraft, illumination, calligraphy, vikings, architecture,
furniture and some books on the middle east. Some are auction style,
some are Buy it Now. Some are at Euro prices (discounted listings on
Ebay.ie that I took advantage of last week) but will sell to folks
the
equivalent in US dollars. Feel free to browse and if any take your
fancy, please bid early and often :)

I too want to thank you Dear lady Gigi for all your generous help in getting me
started. Getting started has been slow and you have eased the beginning so much.
Thanks again! :)

Well thank you again. But its just "Gigi" I haven't been awarded the title of
Lady. But in anycase it really is my pleasure to help you out. Besides, we have
a lot of things in common.

Its one of the reasons the list was started...to help.
You might wish to contact someone locally who might be of better assitance. If
you don't know who that would be I'll help you hunt them down! Hehehehe

Good morning, all!

I don't object that Maria asked for prayers. It's a little off-topic for
the list, but I'll put it down to friendly chat, which is okay as long as
it doesn't overwhelm the list. And I think it's great that lots of people
will pray for her.

That being said, everyone who is going to pray, or not pray, for Maria,
pleased don't say so on the list. This list has *hundreds* of subscribers;
it's not a small community. If even 10% of the subscribers write back to
say that they're praying for Maria, we will all have very full mailboxes
and there will be very little discussion of the SCA.

I'm not trying to be hard-nosed about this. If you want to send an
encouraging message to Maria, that's cool, but please do the reply to her
private email address, not to the list itself.

Again, I'm not intending to be mean, just bowing to practicality when we
have a list with many hundreds of people on it.

Thanks!

All good.  As I'm from the East, which I don't think has a youth  rapier

I would think that, as long as there is a youth rapier marshall present,
that there would be no reason why he couldn't practice.  Certainly adults  are
not required to have their authorization completed before they can practice  -
at practice is where they learn what they need to pass the  authorization.  But
I would think that having a youth marshall present  would be important so
there is someone present who can teach him how the youth  fighting works as
opposed to the adult if there are significant  differences.

Does anybody have an addy for the Aethelmearc College of Heralds? It
isnt listed on my Name or Arms Submission form. I have Perussed their

Also I have figured out my name, made copies from the web site I got

I would email Garnet Herald: Lord Christopher Harper or Cornelian Herald:
THLady Alheydis von Körckhingen, Co-submissions Heralds for Aethelmearc and
explain your situation. They should be able to give you their mailing
address.

Without seeing your submissions packet, it sounds like you have it together.

In most kingdoms what the processing heralds are looking for minimally is a
good faith effort to supply name documentation. It sounds like you did that,
if you supplied prints of the websites, particularly if they are ones you
accessed through St. Gabriel's website or the sca.org
<http://sca.org>website. (In fact, if you used the latter, then you
only need to cite the
address and date access – the name articles listed in the heraldry section
of the sca.org <http://sca.org> are on the "no photocopy" list.)

Most if not all kingdoms do have an internal review process for submissions,
usually called an Internal Letter of Intent to make sure that the
submissions that they send to Laurel are as good as possible – one thing
that is done at that point is to check and bolster (if necessary) the name
documentation. Once a submission reaches the Laurel Sovereign of Arms, it
goes through the same process again, this time with the help of heralds from
all the kingdoms of the Know World.

And, in your case, I know the name is fine and registerable and the heralds
should have no problem supplying any missing documentation if you missed
something.

Be of good cheer,

Cateline

PS: If you want to send me links for your documentation off-list, I'll look
at them for you, if that will make you feel more comfortable!

Greetings fellow SCAdians,
   Recently attended a local SCA meeting in the Kingdom of Meridies,
looking forward to events and researching the Middle Ages (I aim to
portray an archer of the mid 1300's).
   Most of my experience in reenacting was the early 19th century, have
lot's of experience hand sewing clothing and constructing gear. Put
that experience to use making some medieval footwear and am in the
process of making a coif (next will be some braies).

Yours, Michael of Southampton

Greetings Folks:
I recently attended a Renaissance Festival where I purchased a sword.
It came with a metal scabbard.  The type that has two metal securing
rings.  I want to understand the why it was designed that way and how
it was intended to be worn. Does anyone know the proper way to wear
such a scabbard?  Thank you greatly for any help you can provide.

Well, wouldn't you know it.  We find the SCA and then we have to
move.  We are currently in Meridies (jacksonville) and are moving to
Atlantia (Virginia Beach).  We have looked at the sites that SCA.org
linked to and we are a little worried that they are not as active in
Atlantia as they are here in Meridies.  We were wondering how as we
are new to the sca in general.  How we would make this transition?
(We are moving due to my husband in the Navy.  A wee bit unavoidable)

Thanks a bunch for your help!
Melissa

Greetings, Milord Michael

I hope that your time with the SCA is filled with fun and memories to come.

Thank you Catelin,
I should be fine as you said. Both links are from  the Heraldry web
page. I just panicked when I read the technical jargon LOL.

Ok I dont think I Imagined this....I know I saw it....Somewhere...

I am looking for a web site that listed all the Blazons well most of
them anyway & you could look them up by Kingdom, Barony, Shire etc or
by name (I think)
  I bumbled  across it said oh Kewl & then didnt book mark it *sigh*
Anbody else know where it is?

I think you're looking for the online Ordinary and Armorial
<http://sca.org/heraldry/OandA/index.html>.  It's in the heraldry
section of the main SCA site.

You might also find some of the rolls of arms kept by various groups
interesting.  My favorite is the one for the kingdom of An Tir
<http://badger.cx/heraldry/roll/>.  Scroll down to the bottom of the
index page of that, and you'll find links to all the others of which
I'm aware.

Patrick,

Does the scabbard have one ring around the top and a second around a half a
foot down?

If I remember right the two rings are attached to a chain or cord and then
the chain/cord attaches to the belt.
