Drags Friends Along

I'm doing that 'thing' I do. I'm not sure how to describe it. Green Cat Mama says I have an "aura" that sucks people in. My trusted allies have nick named me "Drags Friends Along". Unka says I can make unusual things seem like a good idea. I dunno. I just get really excited and I feel like my skin is practically crackling with creative excitement. Then I bump into someone kindred spirit who gets snared by one of my visions and it becomes like a covalent bond. Then I crackle even harder.

Right now I can barely contain myself. I sparked with a few artisans recently and I'm terribly excited about sucking them into the world of Italian costuming. goodie, goodie, goodie! muh-ha ha ha!

Of course I still don't have a vision for my Ropa's under bits, but that's okay. I'll forage ahead and even if I don't drool for my own project, I'm very excited about mentoring some other folks.

Do-dah, do-dah.

Happy holidays, all.

Just looked at the picture again.

The V-effect is from the little shear shoulder chemisette/partlet thing.

I think they are cute, but honestly, most people don't do them, so to the SCA eye you wouldn't appear lacking. You'd out-swag everyone if you did one, though. There are pictures of some that are trimmed in what looks like narrow black, flat braid.
