A good friend of ours, Mistress Master Baroness Illadore de Bedegrayne, was being elevated to to Order of the Pelican in the SCA, so I decided she needed a new banner to display during her pre-elevation vigil (which was not really a vigil, but there was a tent, so banners were needed).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banner for Illadore de Bedegrayne<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

This banner was made with acrylic fabric paints on blue linen. The unicorn rampant in the center was one of the more difficult charges I have painted, and the repeating fleur-de-lis border was challenging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stencils<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I printed out a stencil for the Unicorn. That helped me to get the outline and fill that in with white paint. Then, I cut the stencil apart to help me get the internal lines of the design in the right places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stamp<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I made a stencil for the fleurs-de-lis, too (you can see it in the “Stencils” photo), but it turned out to not work so well with the dauber, due to how non-flat the fabric is after painting with the white base coat. I wound up cutting a small stamp from some craft foam, and that worked great. I still needed the daubers that I bought. One became the handle for the stamp, and the other was used to apply a nice coat of paint to the stamp for transfer to the banner. This work so<\/strong> much better than the stencil that I will certainly use this technique again for the annoying repeating patterns that Europeans seem to be enamored of.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
