S1E5 - An Elizabethan Embroidery Primer with Mistress Elizabeth de Belcaire (Liz Scott)

The Time Traveler’s Tavern

Liz Scott, known in the SCA as Mistress Elizabeth de Belcaire is joining us in the Tavern tonight to provide an overview of Elizabethan embroidery! Her enthusiasm and passion for the subject is absolutely contagious!

Liz takes us through popular period motifs and gives us a step-by-step walkthrough of the embroidery process. We'll learn about her time spent in conservatories at UK museums and discuss the uncertain history of Elizabethan sweet bags.

The Anchoress shares a delightful recipe for mulled cider from her personal collection in her letter this month, delivered by a musical Cabin Boy.

Feel free to send us your own missive to [e-mail] or join us virtually in the Tavern at the Time Traveler's Tavern page on Facebook. You can have advance notice for upcoming episodes, engage in witty banter, and let us know what topics you'd like to learn about.

Please don't forget to like, subscribe, and review us, and never miss a monthly episode!
