Brigit of Guernsey
What the heck do you say about yourself! I love the textile arts, have developed a fair amount of knowledge about spinning and dyeing using period methods. Currently I am learning the weaving part of it. I love to teach, hoping to share what I know and inspire others.
I started playing around 1990, the exact date I am not sure of. My first event was Kreigstriber in Banks Oregon although I was going to fight/dance practice for a year before I ever got to an event. I'm married to a wonderful man who makes life a joy Geoffrey FitzHenrie.
I believe that service in the SCA is vital, if we want this game to work we have to help make it happen. Offices I've held are Deputy Gold Key, Gold Key, A&S Minister and Baronial Scribe in Terra Pomaria. I've autocratted some events although never a large one. Served as retinue occasionally.
My passion is for making things, I love the SCA because of being able to learn and have a place to use my creativity. The people here are so willing to share knowledge, it is a rich, rich enviroment
I have much to learn and do ahead of me and look forward to it.
