* West Kingdom's [http://www.wkneedle.org/| Needleworkers Guild], which was started in 1970 and chartered in 1983 promotes the art and enjoyment of historical needlework; furthers our knowledge and develop our skills in different needlework styles; and has fun doing it! (The first official Needlework Guild in the SCA was founded in August 1979 in the Barony of Windmasters' Hill, Kingdom of [[Atlantia]]. Its registered badge is: <i>Argent, fretty azure, a pair of scissors opened in saltire, points to base, Or.</i>)

===Lace Making===
*[http://members.aol.com/Charlenn/nbib.htm Needle Lace Annotated Bibliography by Charlene S. Noto, (member of the Calontir Fiber & Needle Guild) 1996] (Link broken - 5/4/2010) -- “Unfortunately, there is no one book on "This is how you do needle lace for pre-17th century studies". It is a hunt and peck process. Most lace books tend to deal with the extremely fine needle laces of the 17th century or they lean heavily toward information on bobbin lace. What I decided to do here was to list the books that I have actually studied and give you my opinions of them for our use. Again, these are my opinions and in no way should be used as reference for the worth of a particular book. My comments are based on using the books strictly as a study of needle lace done prior to 1600.”
