I had a great weekend in 1470.
Saturday I baked fish in salt dough, with a herb butter betwixt the fillets, and was delicious.
Sunday (C21st plans were cancelled so I returned) I made a few candles - not all the ones pictured!

I had a lovely weekend in 1869 as part of the #kentwellhall Dickensian Christmas event.
I took a small #bookbinding set up with me to keep me occupied as I interacted with visitors - notebooks make good Christmas presents whatever year it is!

On day 2 of #kentwellhall 1536, I delivered unto the mistress of the house her Latin songbook, and then made a start on a new blank commonplace book.
16 quires of laid paper, this has to be my neatest #sewing yet!

On day 4 of #kentwellhall 1536, I re-bound two #facsimile cookery books for a friend. A 'last minute' commission. The soft cover leather books are a nice job for in between tasks of bigger projects.
These are later dates, but easily hidden from view.

On day 1 of #kentwellhall 1536, I finished #binding a Latin songbook. The leather is the most supple brown goatskin which I enjoyed working with. The patch is covering a number brand I didn't see until after I cut the leather.

A snapshot of what I got up to over the last few months or so.
It's great to see how I'm improving and progressing as time goes by, and I'm looking forward to the future with some upcoming commissions.

I made a waterproof cover to wear over my Victorian cap at last month's @KentwellHall events.
This required making a larger-sized cap of calico, painted using black acrylic paint, which mimics the finish of originals covered with a mixture of linseed oil and ball-blacking.
It worked perfectly!
