Sounds awesome, Dawn! I think I've met the person you referred to. I went to a few SCA meetings, and then determined that socializing was boring if I wasn't going to pick up a craft ;). So, good for you! I like to sew, so I could have made garb, but I never got into it. Calligraphy and illumination are so beautiful, and...to be perfectly honest...so Fëanorean. Don't ask me why, I don't think I could explain that!

So squee and enjoy ;).
