Archer, love the current avatar (saw the series long time back).

Going to a faire set in that period? :D

Excellent work! Mayhap some day in the future I will acquire the patience required for embroidery.

Thanks everyone for the comments.

@ Archer, It was a pleasure to meet you too. I really enjoyed doing the charge. I changed off between this and doing chainmaile and one other small project. But as far as the embroidery experience,  I really enjoyed it. As far as me in action, it might be comical. I have never done a character and I can be socially challenged. LOL.
We bought our Pirates feast and Masque ball tickets today. I have a couple of questions for you concerning this. Do most people bring their own feast ware?

We'll figure out something on the characters to do as a team,  if you wish.  I'm often asked, where is my horse ?   I usually tell them I lost it in a joust to the Blue Knight.   ;D We could discuss ideas by PM when ready.

Actually, at the feaste, most eat with their fingers and do not bring utensils but, it sounds like a good idea as I've found the green beans and soup bowl a bit difficult by hand,  with wenches at the table.  ;D   Last year, the danes across the table were probably thinking . . . veni, vidi, volo in domum redire.  Maybe it was the green bean juice in the beard ?  Anyway, they had a show and a  half as we had Cpt. Spleen at the table and that presents a fun show, standing alone.  :D
