Ahoy, and welcome, Mister Gorrell! Your lanterns have been such a pleasure to use.

Happy Mew Year, Stynky! Thank you for letting me be part of this wonderful family.

Such thoughtful and beautifully crafted gifts brought smiles and happy laughter to the day! Finely detailed miniatures, carefully hand painted by Michael Bagley, to resemble Mission, Iron Jon, myself and others, will fill out my collection for Blood and Plunder and Port Royal (both by https://www.firelockgames.com)! I also received gifts from Jessica Bagley - a sweet hand-embroidered ornament and a set of her awesome hand-cast dice for adventuring! I am so grateful for the friendships Pub has made possible - Michael and Jessica, thank you so very much! 😊❤️

Wow, that is quite unusual. I wonder if it is more of a coif? Might be worth reaching out to Snowshill… -
There are so many flicker LED options out there, I am interested to see what we can do in the near future to create realistic battery options for fire-safe events.

Larsdatter.com is quite the resource, indeed. I personally had trouble with caps as well, due to my extra small noggin. I had made one from a standard pattern, and it looked like I was wearing a wash bowl. Haven’t gotten back to it since… -

Thank you for letting us know, and, Congratulations, Ransom! -
I would love to see what is possible with the Events, specifically regarding date and location organization or search options. There are so many events to choose from, but finding one close to the area you are looking for, on the date you have in mind, can be a little daunting.

Oooh, that sounds lovely! I have some of the Williamsburg hot chocolate, looking forward to sampling yours!

Not to worry in the least about the fit! As I understand it, the earliest mantuas did not have the plates sewn down - I expect they would have fit the same way. The front pleats are as important to the shaping as everything else, and make a huge difference in the finished appearance of the mantua. That said, I would leave them until after you stabilize the neckline, as your front pleats can have a great range of fit to them, to be as tailored or loose as you prefer. You should be well pleased!
