	As a lifelong historical costuming nut- er, aficionado, Penelope was aware of the SCA for many years due to the plethora of excellent blogs run by SCAdians. While most of her works were made for productions of Shakespeare's plays, circa 2021 she felt drawn to create something for herself, a bit earlier period and more strictly historical. "I might as well make sure that it fits within SCA period, just in case," she thought to herself. Thus was born her 1560s kirtle, fondly referred to as "a muslin that got out of hand" which has been serving her well to this day despite being made of a lowly linen blend found at Our Lady Joann (may she rest in peace). Its pad-stitched linen bodice and fingerloop braided laces capped with distinctly self-made points exemplified the thorough dedication Penelope would one day bring to the SCA.

	While dwelling in the southernmost reaches of Trimaris, Penelope attended a medieval dance class hosted by the Shire of Sangre del Sol. This was her first contact with the SCA and remained her only contact with it as she moved to the East Kingdom, Meridies, and finally Ansteorra over the next several years. Landing in Ansteorra in early 2025, an incidentally SCAdian friend learned of her fondness for historical costuming and introduced her to the Barony of the Steppes, where she instantly knew that she was home.
