Project Progress

[hrj]

And despite running off to buy plants that I had no business buying today, I've moved forward on three projects. For the "Hoods from Viking-era Dublin" class, I've created the text for the handout (still need to format and print it), put together the kits (except for needing to get needles for them), and made the demo piece. For the "Heraldic jobs in the SCA" class, I've drawn up extensive working notes and just need to format them in a more readable fashion. For the guest room redecorating, I've put down the deposit on the wall bed (which puts it in their queue to make), scheduled the flooring people to come in to do the measurements and estimate, listed the current bed on Freecycle and found a taker, and drawn up a to-do list for the other related tasks. (To play with my new iPhone to-do app.)

I can't attend A&S due to work ... is there a way to get the class handout on the Dublin hood?

Not until it actually exists, there isn't. Of course, you could buy the book I'm cribbing it all from:

Heckett, Elizabeth Wincott. 2003. Viking Age Headcoverings from Dublin. Royal Irish Academy, Dublin. ISBN 0-9543855-5-1

I'll probably be teaching it again sometime soon, since I've made up 3 times as many kits as I'm allowing students.
