== Introduction ==
== Introduction ==
Amie Sparrow joined the SCA in 2003 in the Kingdom of Atlantia. She thought she was going to become a great scribe and created a great many scrolls in her early years but was eventually tempted to turn to costuming. She spends most of her time sewing historically accurate garb and teaching on a variety of costume-related subjects. She has served as Baroninal newsletter editor and Deputy of A&S. She shoots recurve bow and crossbow. 
I joined the SCA in 2003 in the Kingdom of Atlantia. My registered name is English. Researching and [[sewing]] historically accurate [[garb|clothing]] interests me greatly. These days I spend most of my time sewing clothing and teaching a variety of costume-related subjects.
