Summer is leaving the main part of our wonderful kingdom, Autumn is rushing in and again a new newsletter is on its way to you :)
I want to thank all members who contributed to this years 'Pennsic Gift Basket' - it was a great pleasure for me to see the pictures of the lovely items that have been donated by the talented and generous artisans of our kingdom.
I also would like to thank the members of the Embroidery guild of Aarnimetsä for contributing gifts for the Queens Tea gift.
Furthermore I am very happy to forward the following message from Meisterinne Katheryn Hebenstreitz to you:

"Greetings to the members of the Dragon's Needle Embroidery Guild!
I have finally managed to put up a few pictures of the gift basket our King and Queen could hand over to Their Majesties of Gleann Abhann at Pennsic this year.
Thank you so much to every single one of you that contributed to this glorious basket! It really was incredible!
You can find the pictures on the page I have linked to below. But I would like to point out that I did not photograph every single item and there are many more items I wish I had taken pictures of...
Also – thre are some pictures included of little embroidered bags for the Queens Tea gift. They were made by the Embroidery guild of Aarnimetsä. (It was Countess Fiona that was responsible for gathering items for Queens tea gifts.)

And now to my next piece of buisness.
There is a great need for items for next years Pennsic gift basket!
Let theese pictures inspire you – start a small project now – that gives you almost a year to finish it!
Help our upcoming Kings and Queens to show that Drachenwald indeed is the grandest of realms when it comes to the Arts and Sciences!
(Yeah – we do kick ass on the battlefield aswell – it was a pleasure watching Drachenwald salying their oponents on the battlefield!)
I will once again work though out the year to gather items for largess and gift basket for next years Pennsic.
Countess Fiona has graciously agreed to once again collect items for Queens Tea gifts – those gifts need not be large but we are in need of items for ALL the other Kingdoms of the Known world. Once again I urge
you to start now – then the work will not be all that tough.
If you have any quetsions, feel free to contact me at

In service
Katheryn Hebenstreitz"
