site exerpt
Server is dedicated to the lacemaker's art. Due to personal bias, the contents will tend to lean heavily towards 16th and early 17 century laces, and lacemaking in the SCA. I've started with a few files I have lying around...Book reviews, links to sites and articles (brewing, mead, wine, ingredients, judging, recipes, organizations, SCA guilds, homepages). For SCA members: competition guidelines and forms, mailing list archives.
