Hello, all! This winter has seen me hibernating, but now I'm slowly waking up, doing my usual stuff. There's bling, teaching about Viking Age garments and nerding out with awesome people. Here are some photos from last week's sewing class.

Going a-Viking! Or at least, going to a Viking market... Dressing the part, being the nerd.

I'm refusing to give Kitty more wet feed tonight. She's shocked, and very verbal about it.

I see that there is a message feature here, but that all followers/ friends can't be messaged. It could be an alternative to Messenger, though?

Now also on Mastodon! The handle there is TheBryde. Short and modest,wouldn't you say? And it's a sad photo, because I'm sad. Photo by Espen Winther.

I had a very short trip to York this time, but managed to catch the great VALHAll:A conference in the company of Hilde Thunem. The subject was "Home in the Viking Age". I enjoyed every talk!

Today: Sewing a Viborg shirt and thinking about the world and the fact that I love my family and friends.

I just got a beautiful edition of the Edda poems! It's a translation using archaic "New Norwegian", and I love the colours of the front cover.

Threads isn't threading well, Facebook isn't facing. I'll see if I can manage to fly in the Blue, Blue Sky!

Someone on Threads suggested that there should be a national day of protest in The States on Feb. 17th at noon (I can apparently not share the link here, and it's suppressed on fb), just so you know.😀

I promised myself that I would post this on January 20th: R.I.P. President Jimmy Carter.

Trying to stay busy! Putting together a talk about monograms, giving a talk about embroideries from all over the world and preparing a class in hand sewing the Viking Age Viborg shirt.
