An SCA activity where entrants efforts are pitted against each other and winners determined.
This is the documentation for my 2023 7 Pearls Arts and Sciences competition entry. My intention is to come back and flesh this out more over time to create more of aa easy guide to roman costuming. However I’ve had several requests for this documentation recently in the run up to Pennsic so I figured…
Queens Prize is a fun competition. The best way to get used to competing in SCA arts and sciences. Blunders may happen, but with care and consideration most can be overcome.
I’ve told you before that I think each scroll is an experiment because from beginning to end it’s a string of options. A learning experience all the way. Well, my “new craft” entry into last week’s Baronial Arts and Science’s Championship was one also. My New Craft Entry I wanted to make a clove-infused skin-care product from Gervase…
2016 Queen’s Prize Tournament I’m bummed. Calontir’s Queen’s Prize Tournament is just around the corner, a month away, on September 15th. And I won’t be able to go.

You’ll see my timing is later than my usual delay, but I wanted to do more than post photos. The Shire of Lost Moor hosted the event at a site we hadn’t seen before. It had space by the ton and a…
Saturday Calontir held it’s annual Kingdom Arts and Sciences’ Competitions in my local group, Barony of the Lonely Tower. After greeting people at the gate and signing them in I had time in the afternoon to view entries and take pictures. You can see the room’s one-third here. With Easter the next day, we had…
In 2000 I entered Calontir‘s Arts and Sciences Championship Competiton with the three items in this photo. (Yes, they were all mine. Back then I was known in the SCA as “Siobhan le Blake”.) The easiest single entry to see is the colorful six item comparative illuminated manuscript styles’ study. Lower in the photo, in the…
