Making Banners for Knight realms!

Hey guys! It's Bill, and I have an exciting new group project for Knight Realms players to help out with! I've talked it over with some of the costumers and other players, and we've decided to have a go at making banners for the Barony, the 5 lands, and Winterdark. The initial 7 will be put up in the Inn so that everyone can see them in their bannerly glory, and if we like the banners and are enjoying making them, we'll probably be making more to go around camp, and possibly even building portable ones to bring to battle. Let's be honest, every battle is cooler with banners snapping in the wind, and it gives a visual focus point to the fight. What we'd like from you all is donations of time to craft the banners, and fabric to help cover the cost of those making them.

Plans for production:
We're going to have a Baronial banner made first as proof of concept, then work across each of the lands and winterdark as we get more volunteers and money so we can ramp up production. Then, if we like the banners, we'll continue producing them for various places around KR. The initial 7 banners should be of the same size, as they IG will have been made by the Barony for the lands and such. This doesn't have to be exact, but we'd like them as similar in dimensions as possible This will also help standardization for fitting them to banner poles.
Compensation:
You will be awarded SP for your time or fabric contributions, what I ask is that you track hours spent producing banners and keep all your receipts related to stuff you buy to produce banners.
Discussion: I intend to use this forum thread to talk about possible banner production methods, and have us decide on ones for each banner we're making, possibly with a volunteer to head up each individual banner. I don't mind them being made with different methods, as that allows us to compare and contrast which style of production we like the best, though if everyone agrees on one method prior to working on them that will also work.
Contact: Hit me up here, on facebook, or through PMs to talk to me about helping with this.

Thanks in advance for your help in making KR an even cooler place to rolelplay, I really look forward to seeing these things in person, and helping them be made.

so, as far as the banners for the Inn...those should be relatively easy to make. We should be able to rig them to hang over some of the windows (NJ safety/fire/excessive farting laws notwithstanding). For a battle banner, are we thinking similar to this:

Or this?

I like the smaller ones from your first link better - easier to see the whole design over everyone's heads and less likely to get tangled in all the nature.

I helped make something of the sort for Drega'Mire, and I have a large cardboard stencil of the drake. Could this be of any use?

Definitely! We should talk.

I'd love to add any assistance I can. I have an old-as-dirt sewing machine, and slight less old-as-dirt machine that I wouldn't mind using again.
