Valdisa start playing in the SCA in January of 2010. Her and her husband Wolff Schultz were looking for a family-friendly activity. They already had a lot of friends who did the SCA and were interested in trying it. They never looked back! Valdisa loves "fiber arts," including starting with raw wool to cleaning, carding, combing of the wool, spinning (drop and spinning wheel) and dying it. Valdisal also knows how to knit, crochet, sew, embroider, as well as weave with inkle, card, and floor loom. In addition, she does lamp work (glass bead making), woodcarving and wood turning. Valdisa also loves making and donating largess.
Persona
Valdisa plays a 12th/13th century Icelandic persona which is just post Norse period, but typically dresses in Norse garb. She also time travels to other periods including Greek, 12-14 century, and working on an Elizabethan.
