a couple of weeks ago, I bought material to make a cloak...I fianlly got all the piees cut out and started sewing it today. I've gotten theback assembled and the front, and started sewing the front pieces to the back a little bit agobut decided I wanted to take a bit of a break (I also don't feel like dealing with one of the pieces right now, which I have to haul out the pattern again and re-cut the largest edge on the blasted thing- I cut a piece WAY too big on one side, and I can fix it without ripping anyhting apart, I just don't feel like doing that right now.

Sewing is a lot easier than I remember it being in 8th grade.

Soon I will have a bright yellow and orange summer cloak made of a very open-weave gauszy cotton, with purple, blue and white batiked suns. When I get my next check, I will get the trim, a bright iridescent green braid. The hood tassel is hot pink and purple. I will be finished with this whole thing- minus the braid, hopefully tomorrow if not the next day. The brais I should have before Lunassagh, if not, it won't be a big deal.

I will have to post pictures.

Google the "Agrionia". All ancient Greek festivals have some sort of myth explaining them. Also, if you look a little deeper into how Dionysos is and was worshipped you will find that almost all nine of the muses have their connections, especially Euterpe, Melpomene, Terpsichore, and Thalia.

It's good to also remember that the Greeks didn't write of all things, as most were believed to be self evident.
