    It is really easy. The hardest part is trying to decide which fabrics work best for you. If you are trying to go for warmth, look for nice heavy fabrics (fleece works well) on the inside and densely woven materials for your outer shell. Ski-jacket lining also works as a good middle layer, but that starts to make things a tad more complicated. Having someone else present to adjust your hem for you is also very helpful.

    Beyond that, all you need is a sewing machine, your thread, any clasps and embellishments you wish to use, and about 4 hours from cutting the pattern pieces out to your finished product.

    Feel free to get in touch with me or your local branch of the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) if you need help.

    Kamloops. If you couldn't tell from my location, it's not in the U.S.

    As for cloaks, they're surprisingly easy to make. Most fabric stores have decent patterns that you can choose from.

    I think it's going on 6(?) years here. From what I remember of the brochure, the copyright on the script is dated 2004, I think. It was freezing and windy when my room mate and I went last year, so I think I'll be taking my cloak along instead of my coat if we ever go again.

    The engine used to sit in the local park for the longest time until the heritage society decided to get it restored and working again. I remember playing on it when I was a kid.

    The actors mostly do their own stuff, but the plot is more or less based on an accident that actually happened.

    We have a restored steam locomotive here that gets turned into a "Ghost Train" every Halloween. It's actually pretty fun once you get past the cheesy story line. The haunted hayrides sound like they would be interesting though.

    Awwwww, thanks. Yeah, he's my baby!

    Your fish in your avatar has nice coloring. I love the lighter colored ones with the dark eyes. They are so cute!

    They need a densely planted tank (real or fake) of at least five gallons. They have to be kept alone. No tank mates. They can live on a daily diet of frozen bloodworms but they should be able to hunt snails on occasion. Soft shelled snails like pond or nerite are good. I keep pond snails in my other tanks for mine. They need a heater (i keep mine betwwen 78 and 80) and a filter. 50% weekly water changes are important because they're really messy eaters. :)
