Cloisters Tapestries

Dreaming, fast-foward to the Fort Tryon Park Medieval Faire that I'm attending on October 4th with dear friends Jen of Parrish Relics and Lisa of InByTheEye films.

To add to the anticipation, I'm surrounding myself with medieval sights and sounds. Impossible to not associate it with Loreena McKennit's Bonny Swans as the backdrop in the video is one of the tapestries on display at The Cloisters.

This is one of my favorite costumes that I made and wore to the fair years ago - well, it has been to quite a few fairs.

What to wear to the fair this year? Decisions, decisions.
