Greetings,
First off, I'm more of a book nerd than a movie fan....although I loved the costumes in the films. I first read The Hobbit when I was 9 or 10, and have since read all of the LOTR books several times.
I have always been interested in the diversity of races and cultures depicted in Tolkien's work....and the songs......and I have spent way too much time designing costumes for various characters(before the movies, even).
In real life, I am a seamstress, artist and folk musician. I enjoy things like designing and making historical and fantasy costumes, weaving on my loom, playing the fiddle, and cooking. I have one child, a wonderful little girl who will turn three this September. :-)

Welcome! Feel free to join in any of the discussions and even start a few of your own. You may want to check out the Costumes & Props section of the forum Lomadia has started. I have 2 girls, a 5 year old, who will be 6 in September and a 3 year old who will be 4 in July. I just love them. They offer such insight into life. Enjoy!

Thank you for the welcome! This seems like a great board....friendly and intellegent. :-)
My little girl has really made a difference in my life, and I feel very fortunate indeed to be blessed with such a wonderful child. She is both sensible and sensitive, and extremely creative. And she appreciates that I make costumes.....you should just see all the great dress up-stuff she has...
I'll go check out the costumes and props forum.....
