Kingdom Scribal Opportunities

Hello and Greetings!

Our new Kingdom Signet is seeking scribes willing to do assignments for Agincourt, and he wishes to give BMDL scribes “first dibs”.

I know we have many talented calligraphers and illuminators in our Barony. Even if you haven’t been active for awhile, this would be an excellent opportunity to rejoin the Scribal community and remind everyone why BMDL shines so brightly.

Please contact Master Jon at: signet at aethelmearc dot org

Online Sewing Thursday, Sept 16th, at 7:30

Online sewing will be this Thursday, September 16th, starting at 7:3o p.m. There was interest in Japanese garb this past weekend. I will spend a little time talking about a few simple pieces of Japanese clothing. I will have web references with pictures, as well as references on construction, and some patterns that are easy. You don’t have to be interested in Japanese clothing to join. In fact, you don’t have to sew to join. We enjoy folks working on any fiber project. If you want to make an appointment to sew in-person, or a more detailed consultation, or you want the zoom information please email sewing (at) debatablelands (dot) org.

Greetings good gentles,

As we prepare for our first Barony Gathering since the time of the long rest, I’d like to offer some reminders on our ways. I know many of us have forgotten things that were once second nature.

Pack sunscreen, bugs spray, comfortable chairs, your mask for visiting the indoor restrooms during the time of the pandemic, your personal snacks, and anything else you might require for your comfort along with something to keep your hands busy while we visit.

You will be required to sign in but the meeting is otherwise free of charge!

This is a garb optional day, come to be comfortable.

THL Elss of Augsburg will be setting up a portal to the Known World Cooks and Scribes “Aethereal” Event! [Virtual Classroom]

There will be a garb (and stuff) exchange for those members who have recently joined us and once they have had an opportunity, it will be opened to all.

If you have a recently empty scroll case, please bring it with you, our scribe would be happy to see it put to good use!

Her Excellency Hilderun will be holding court in the afternoon.

The site will open at 11 AM and the day will officially be over at 7 PM.

If anyone has an announcement, please email me and let me know so that I can add you to the agenda. seneschal@debatablelands.org.
