Largess Derby

🧺 The goal of the derby is to create a collection of largesse that can be used for gift baskets for investitures, coronations and wars, as well as donating some to the Crown.

Please come and join us as we fill the coffers with amazing talent and skill to share with others.

✨ Is your mind sparking with ideas for gift baskets?

🔥 Hands burning to make small useful items?

🧨 Is your creativity about to explode from waiting for a derby?

Then this is the event for you to help out your Barony and Kingdom in an artsy way!

🎁 Don't want to make a dozen of something? We are also looking for prizes for entrants who qualify for 'Over the Top'. Please contact me (Lady Leane) if you need any assistance or would like to donate a prize!!!

SATURDAY

8:00 am - 9:00 am Largess Drop Off

9:00 am - 12:00 Largess Judging

Rules for Entry:

🔥All entrants must create 12 items that are suitable for largesse. For example: 12 needlebooks, 12 hats from different (or the same) period, 12 pieces of jewelry, 12 children’s toys. (12 earings would not be suitable as that is only 6 pairs but we would gladly accept them as prizes)

🔥All entries must be tagged and ready to be gifted the day of the competition.

🔥Fiber content and ingredients should be listed for any items that contain possible allergens.

🔥Entries do not need to be documentable, as this is not an Arts and Science competition.

🔥Items should not have specific heraldry on them as they are meant to be given to other areas.

🔥Judging will be done by the “bead in a cup” method.

🔥All entrants must register their entries with Lady Leane at time of competition.

Over the Top:

✨To be eligible for an Over the Top prize, you must enter 3 or more entries (3 sets of a dozen items).

✨All 3 entries must be in different categories. For example: an entry of jewelry, an entry of needlebooks, and an entry of wooden dice would be eligible. An entry of necklaces, an entry of bracelets, and an entry of earrings would not be eligible.

✨If there is any question of if your entries would qualify, or if you would like to donate an Over the Top prize, please contact Lady Leane at leannretzlaff@gmail.com or on Facebook.

Prize:

The winner will choose one item from each of the entries and a special prize for making our derby awesome!

(If there are 12 entrants, the winner will receive 12 items. Special prize to be announced...)
