Hello to the other Lyssa from the original Lyssa! So nice to finally have a face for you. Was a bit confused because I knew I wasn't camping with anyone there. Very nice to see the rest of the event I missed since I didn't try to be everywhere and do everything this time which helped to avoid the usual heat exhaustion collapse.

Thanks for doing this. I haven't been to Battlemoor since the before times (pre covid) and I need to go back. I see you found White Wolf and Phoenix. Get weaving!

I had a great time camping together. Thank you for the hospitality and comradery. Nox Venus represent!

Also we never had a chance to get me on camera lol

I had a mushroom pie and it was amazing!

I have never packed for a Pennsic (right now I'm contemplating Gulf Wars for next year) however a lot of your tips are excellent. But keep your re-enacting gear organized before the event, use your list, and there is far less chance that something important will be forgotten. In CW, I use a wooden ammunition box that is three by three to store boots, sox, ammunition, caps, mess gear, my neckerchiefs, bosun whistle's, gun cleaning apparatus, and sewing kit. It does not house the cleaning rags, those are in another small box. In the house, all garb is kept on the clothing rack, and leather gear whether CW or medieval is in the clothing bag. Boots are in the Medieval Box (I may have to change that in the future) along with my cup, etc.

After each event I clean clothing and put it in clothing bags on my clothes rack. Leather goods like belts and pouches go in the bottom of the bag. This way, when I'm packing I can grab the bag and go. If you have a big collection of garb, and it sounds like some of you have much more than I, I only started with the SCA a couple of years ago, get the long canvas clothing bags, with small windows added, write on a card and put it in the window for exactly what is in the bag. Have designated bags for particular outfits, to make it more convenient.

Make sure you have your triple A card along if you don't feel comfortable changing tires, or have problems with your vehicle. They are a life saver!

I I camp with a big unit, and they bring the tents and so forth, but we all pitch in to put them up, and carry sleeping gear in, and set up the interior of the tents and so forth. In some ways it is a hassle because sometimes we're putting up seven tents, but in some ways it is really good, because the last day we are at an event, usually the Sunday, we'll pack up Sunday morning. All our personal stuff and garb goes to our cars, tents are taken down and so forth. Civil War re-enacting is a little different, because we usually hold a battle the Sunday that starts at 2 and we stay until after the battle, but with everything broken down, after the battle we can leave.

I do Civil War Re-enacting and there my unit brings a complete medbox, with all kinds of bandages, over the counter meds for every ailment you can think of, a thermometer, and blood pressure cuff. If you have a bunch of people you know your camping with, this can be a really great aid. Just make sure the one who takes on the Med box is going to be there!

doge is adorbs!

A lovely look! That headdress is fantastic! Not particularly summery, but I've started a shawl for a girlfriend with a big celebration coming up in the early part of next year.

Thats a lovely color! I will try this soon!

Eu amei a dica, já vou fazer várias 💗

I’ll be making one! Thanks!

Great hairstyle to keep hair out of the face and also not worry about remaking. I’ve just started trying this and I so want to do it properly, it saves me form pesky pins and clutches and bun sticks. Those require constant Maintenance

Cool 😀

I used to camp in a 16x16 marquee with mudflaps and groundcloth. I used to lay fake sheepskin on the floor to cushion.

A Bit of zeolith power works Wonder. And you cant See it. Not Like Starch 😅

Kill that music- can’t even hear YOU!

What state are you located if in USA? That thrift store!!! I saw a lot of linens I would have bought! I never see that many at any one thrift store. I am in Georgia. Thanks~

I would 100% use this for mundane camping too! It’ll be at least another year before I can have one this nice though!

I’ve gotten all the way to camp and realized I wasn’t sure if I’d make it back for fuel… I did, but only because I was less than 15mi from a gas station.

Basting also helps avoid the tension issues that pins can sometimes create because of the way they go through the fabric. And you can leave them in to keep everything in place until you're done, instead of having to pull them out to avoid sewing over them or stabbing yourself. 100% worth it.

Very cute

Great job!!

Your stays are great - as an inheritor of the family chest, this pattern works really well with that

Soo soo cute! Love the pattern and fabric you picked. I did a similar holiday skirt several years ago to match my significant other's holiday suit.

The skirt is so cute.

Did you make a project inspired by Barbie the Movie?

5:55 that's a pretty big problem. I went and looked at their catalog, the new editions of the non-stay/undergament-focused ones, the dates are as follows *1560-1620*: POF 3 *1695-1795*: POF 6 1720-1860: POF 1 1860-1940: POF 2 Therefore, there is no content in the Men's and women's *Dress* books between 1660-1690, which the original POF 1 included. Would anyone mind referring to your copy of the original and confirm if there were only undergarments and/or ruffles &c, and they may "only" have been shuffled into those dedicated publications? Thank you this was very helpful.

Do they have fabrics too, or is it just trimmings?

Thanks so much for pointing out were to order this great book. I have been trying to get a copy, but the exhorbitant second hand prices scared me off.

I’m fascinated to see how women dressed in earlier times. There’s so much involved. You can see why they would need help dressing, it must have taken ages! It’s interesting to see how everything is just tied together. No zips of course! Your outfit is beautiful, thanks for sharing.❤️🇬🇧

Wow love seeing all your thrift store buys! Well done on finding all the beautiful silk fabrics, we would never have those in our charity shops in the UK! New subscriber as well, so looking forward to seeing more videos. Greetings from the UK❤️🇬🇧

Gorgeous! Did you draft your own kirtle? I'm having a really difficult time figuring out the bodice. Would be super grateful for any tips you could give me!

Hopefully you all love a peek behind the scenes as im trying to improve my camera and video skills to keep making better content. If you're noticing improvement in later videos let me know in yhe comments. ❤

Tell me about your own dream dress!

Next era is 1550s Florentine for get ready with me videos. What other periods should I do?

Zoey is Beautiful ❤

Curtains and sheets make the best fabric for historic clothing! Even bedskirts are great for ruffled skirt layers

❤

Do you ever repurpose thrifted items for your costuming projects? Share your favorite upcycled projects with everyone in the comments ❤

Can i use this method for fresh roses?

Do you have any plans to make a Regency outfit? I'd love to hear about it!

I can add my recommendation to hers. I got this book some time ago, and it is everything she says.
