| Year Long Challenge: from 12th Night 2013 to 12th Night 2014
| |
| | |
| With this challenge we all learned something new. We spent a year learning the form of embellishment, and then showed off what we'd learned at 12th Night!

| A Thing and Its Embellishment: 12th Night Contest, 2013
| |
| | |
| The display/contest went very well. There were many lovely items on show, and many people came by to see them all. 5 people brought items to display:
| |
| | |
| Lady Alizaunde brought beautiful celtic embroidery done in stem and modified basket stitches, eventually meant to decorate a tunic.
| |
| THL Havoise de Rohan came with various pieces: a split/stem stitch embroidery on silk of the Welshdragon, a tablecloth with large areas of cross-stitched voided work (assisi) and a tunic embroidered with various stitches around the neckline and so on. All wonderful work.
| |
| Gudrun Saebjornsdottir entered celtic embroidery done as a very nice favor for her husband.
| |
| Dame Madrun displayed wood burning and painting on the cover of a hand-bound book used for remembrances at Baroness Laurellen's vigil for Pelican.
| |
| THL Aelianora de Wyntringham showed a 14th-15th C German brick-stitched bag.
