    I know my school specifically uses a blend of several different methods. I don't know how common this is for Tae Kwon Do in general though.

    I completely understand Illyria. I made the pattern for my costume (for pics see the Cosplay thread in Hand Crafts) out of muslin and then transferred it to paper. I had to alter it five or six times to get it looking halfway decent. And then, because the hem was uneven, my mom had to pin it up...

    Thanks Madame Mayor! The Hand Crafts forum is becoming one of my favorites, and certainly one of my most frequented. :D

    I love Tae Kwon Do Selvyn, and I usually attend two to three classes per week. This January will be seven years since I first started, and I'll be testing for my second degree in October. I paricularly enjoy the forms, and the free sparring as well.

    I am certainly always busy Selvyn. I enjoy making things, from crafts, to writing, to even cooking! My entire family is creative, so I have always had a good environment for my efforts.

    Thank you Mother! I was excited to see you were from Durham. We live about forty-five minutes away from Raleigh, so Durham isn't much farther.

    I don't mind at all Madame Mayor! It is one of my favorite subjects. I got my first sewing machine when I was ten, but I have always enjoyed crafts of all kinds. My knitting and crochet skills are good, but not great. I've only done flat pieces in both, several crochet afghans and knitted...

    I hope you enjoyed it Onis Sedai, especially traveling all the way from Norway! My great-great-grandmother came to the United States with her sister from Norway, and I believe they lived in Oslo.

    Thank you Madam Mayor! Just to clarify, my mother has read all of the Wheel of Time books and introduced me to the series. I was referring to the Stormligt archives by Brandon Sanderson in my previous post. Sorry for the confusion! I'm still getting used to how this forum works.

    Thank you Anika Sedai. The last name was actually chosen by my mom. She hasn't read any of the Stromlight books (yet;)). It is based on the Persian name Kohinoor which means "Mountain of light", which we both found appropriate.

    Hello all! I am Elyss Koh'inor and I'm so excited to start my journey through Tar Valon. For my introduction post, I'm going to answer a few of the suggested questions. I found out about TarValon.Net at my first JordanCon this past April. Since then, I've been waiting for my schoolwork to calm...
