I posted the Challenge in the Caid LJ and on the Caid-Scribes list (I thought your Grace was on the Scribes list?) But here it is again:
I, Aliskye MacKyven Raizel, throw down the gauntlet and challenge all the Scribes in the Kingdom and all warbands, households and landed groups to take up quill and brush and produce one original Scroll to be completed and turned in to the Scribe Armarius by October 22nd, 2006. I will provide a prize for the best scroll by a new Scribe (done by anyone who has done three or fewer scrolls) and a prize for the best scroll done by an experienced Scribe (anyone who has done four or more scrolls). If she is willing, I call Mistress Luighseach to judge the scrolls along with those others that she finds suitable (perhaps Her Majesty the Queen and Master Giuseppe, Kingdom Master of Arts). The scroll must be original and pursuant to a scroll assignment.
Who will abide the Challenge!

I've talked to Master Gareth about using Calle Mayor to host a Scriptorium and he seemed amenable. It is a little far from the freeway for easy access but free.
The scroll carriers were all handmade out of mat board and tape. They are three pieces of mat board, one cut out to show the scroll and taped together on 3 sides. Some also have ribbon to tie the carrier closed. Good sizes would be 12x16 and 14 x18 though a lot of them were custom made for odd sized scrolls.
