It's about a year and a half since I posted on here. I decided to do the breadth portion of the Challenge. Under Embroidery, I said I'd make a bunch of Panaches for the Kingdom. I am still working on these while at events. However, I made two badges for Turnier des Herzwalds II, that used a variety of stitches. I am still working on my Cotehardie and Surcoat. Other projects took priority and this was put aside. But I've started the buttonholes. Then I need to finish the sleeves and I'll be finished. As for learning and performing "Were Every Thought an Eye" by John Dowland, that has been accomplished. Now I am attempting a harder song, "Belle Doette". I am also working on a 16th Century Italian dress. The underlying Pair of Bodies is pretty much finished. I just need to get some help patterning the main dress now.
