[[File:Conal-and-Miguel-III Gloves by Livia.jpg|200px|thumb|left|King's Gauntlets & Queen's Gloves embroidered by Livia, granted 04/14/19]]
== Interests: ==
Mostly, I'm an embroiderer with a keen interest in Elizabethan Embroidery. Recently I have learned how to make my own spangles and am delving into the art of glove making. 
 

==Timeline of Activity: ==
I joined the SCA in 1990. I had been looking for the group for years - lured on by occasional photos in the Sunday newspaper of chivalric fighters in Bergfeld Park. One day I saw a flier in a bookstore with contact information. Finally, found! The rest is history. Rosenfeld was only an incipient shire and a very small group when I joined in February of 1990. Because we were so small, the need for willing officers was critical. By May of 1990, I was Seneschal and Acting Chronicler. This was when there was no such thing as email or internet or cell phones. I wrote many a long missive to the then Kingdom Seneschal Baron Bran de Tintreak. By the end of 1991, Rosenfeld was officially a shire. I'd like to say I had a hand in that. Heart and hands.

[[File:Conal-and-Miguel-III Gloves by Livia.jpg|200px|thumb|left|King's Gauntlets & Queen's Gloves embroidered by Livia, granted 04/14/19]]
== Interests: ==
Mostly, I'm an embroiderer with a keen interest in Elizabethan Embroidery. Recently I have learned how to make my own spangles and am delving into the art of glove making. 
 

==Timeline of Activity: ==
I joined the SCA in 1990. I had been looking for the group for years -lured on by occasional photos in the Sunday newspaper of chivalric fighters in Bergfeld Park. One day I saw a flier in a bookstore with contact information. Finally, found! The rest is history. Rosenfeld was only an incipient shire and a very small group when I joined in February of 1990. Because we were so small, the need for willing officers was critical. By May of 1990, I was Seneschal and Acting Chronicler. This was when there was no such thing as email or internet or cell phones. I wrote many a long missive to the then Kingdom Seneschal Baron Bran de Tintreak. By the end of 1991, Rosenfeld was officially a shire. I'd like to say I had a hand in that. Heart and hands.

[[File:Conal-and-Miguel-III Gloves by Livia.jpg|200px|thumb|left|King's Gauntlets & Queen's Gloves embroidered by Livia, granted 04/14/19]]
== Interests: ==
Embroidery with an emphasis on Elizabethan Embroidery. I've also recently learned how to make my own spangles and am currently delving into the art of glove making. 
 

==Timeline of Activity: ==
I joined the SCA in 1990. I had been looking for the group for years -lured on by occasional photos in the Sunday newspaper of chivalric fighters in Bergfeld Park. One day I saw a flier in a bookstore with contact information. Finally, found! The rest is history. Rosenfeld was only an incipient shire and a very small group when I joined in February of 1990. Because we were so small, the need for willing officers was critical. By May of 1990, I was Seneschal and Acting Chronicler. This was when there was no such thing as email or internet or cell phones. I wrote many a long missive to the then Kingdom Seneschal Baron Bran de Tintreak. By the end of 1991, Rosenfeld was officially a shire. I'd like to say I had a hand in that. Heart and hands.

[[File:Conal-and-Miguel-III Gloves by Livia.jpg|200px|thumb|left|King's Gauntlets & Queen's Gloves embroidered by Livia, granted 04/14/19]]
== Interests: ==
Embroidery with an emphasis on Elizabethan Embroidery. I've also recently learned how to make my own spangles and am currently delving into the art of glove making. 
 

==Timeline of Activity: ==
I joined the SCA in 1990. I had been looking for the group for years -lured on by occasional photos in the Sunday newspaper of chivalric fighters in Bergfeld Park. One day I saw a flier in a bookstore with contact information. Finally, found! The rest is history. Rosenfeld was only an incipient shire and a very small group when I joined in February of 1990. Because we were so small, the need for willing officers was critical. By May of 1990, I was Seneschal and Acting Chronicler. This was when there was no such thing as email or internet or cell phones. I wrote many a long missive to the then Kingdom Seneschal Baron Bran de Tintreak. By the end of 1991, Rosenfeld was officially a shire. I'd like to say I had a hand in that. Heart and hands.
