I got your Elemental Beauty right here:





Methinks there could be ghost stories at Estrella.

I cannot sew another stitch tonight.

I have been cranking away on the mokume-shibori project all week. Come home from work, have a snack, sew, eat something vaguely dinner like, sew until bedtime. Yards and yards and yards of running stitch that's ALL going to be torn out after the fabric is dyed.

That said, I've gotten a lot done. I should be able to put in some more work on it tomorrow if I grant myself a break tonight, and maybe even get the sucker dyed Saturday afternoon. I may end up with final construction work on it happening at war (hems, seam finishing, that sort of thing). 

I really would like to go to the Noh lecture in San Francisco on Sunday - and maybe fit in a detour to Japantown for some mochi for our sake party. That means doing as much packing as I can on Sunday. The camping stuff is already in the truck, but I still have to deal with the garb trunk, six drums, the hurdy gurdy, the sugoroku board/party box and several clinking bottles of sake. 

The lantern building experiments will have to be back burnered. I just haven't had time.

EDIT: Nobody has responded regarding my offer to carry items for the Artisan's Display at Estrella. Whatever. Instead, I stirred some shit on SCA-West. It seems creativity is still the law in the current reign, but only if you're representing a barony.  Genius ideas to promote participation in an activity should never be exclusionary.

Note to self: I should probably write up something documentation-like on the sugoroku box at some point.
