[SCA-BMDL] Fiber guild meeting tonight! Banner making!

[Ruth Morrisson]

Greetings from Myfanwy!
Uh, what kind of triangle?  Do you mean an icosceles triangle (where the widest width is 10” and the height is 14”)?  Because there’s no way that you can get an equilateral triangle to be in those dimensions….  I’ve just spent the better part of an hour and a half trying to figure out the dimensions (after having to tape two 8-1/2” x 14” pieces of paper together, trying to make stuff fit) and my brain hurts.  I went online and have been reading up on the 7 (!) different types of triangles, which has made my head hurt even more (equilateral triangles have all sides the same length, and all 3 angles are 60°.
I may just bag stuff and paint comet pennons.  Because presumably there will be templates of some sort.  I did enough math yesterday trying to pay income taxes.

Paint your heraldry, decorate your camp, add some pageantry to you SCA life (or mundane life - who wouldn't love silk banners fluttering in the office AC?), or, if you're temporarily out of ideas, come and make spiffy comet pennons to decorate the baronial list ropes!

We'll be painting arms and badges onto silk using paint that flows into the fibers leaving smooth flowing fabric, and resists to keep the colors where we want them. If you want to paint a specific design, please bring it sized to fit on a 10 inch wide 14 inch tall equilateral triangular pennon. Otherwise, we'll be making black and gold comet pennons to hang from our Baronial list ropes. All brushes and materials will be provided."
