The cote Þorfinna and Colyne made for Spring Crown 2004, which incorporates the heraldry of Colyne's knight. It took approximately 7 hours just to paint the castles.

The straps were a bit too small, so Þorfinna had to bolt some extensions onto them.

Colyne and Þorfinna at the Coronation of Sarnac and Joliecia (Barony of Rising Waters, AS 36). That lovely plaid is now a sleep tunic.

In January 2003, Colyne finally learned how to sew! He's even written an article on the subject. He made a new tunic and hood to wear to Septentrian 12th Night and a new tunic, over tunic and hood for Berus' Bar and Bar Room Brawl. He's even sewn a banner for the Ursus (Septentria's newsletter) to be used when selling copies at events. Þorfinna also tried her hand at embroidery and made Colyne a belt favour.

Þorfinna's first bliaut, for Spring Crown 2005.	Þorfinna's first cotehardie attempt, made under the watchful eye of Lady Mahault van der Eych. Thorfinna made the hood, cote and shoes.	Close up of the shoes. These are Þorfinna's first attempt at shoe making.
