yup, just looking for the Northkeep standerd, instead of someone elses.
Not really a standard... it's just what everyone does. If you would like to
wear something different, no one will mind :-)

so the front is the Barony and the back has a kingdom arms.
Yes, and the "arms" of the barony are restricted to the Baron/ess. (not
trying to be haughty, just don't want anyone to make a great tabard that they
will get yelled at for wearing). Anyone in the barony may use the badge.

From feed back on the other list this is the current standerd, with kingdom
either on the back or the shoulders.

stupid newby question:
what does voided mean??? I will have to make one of these.
Voided - ======= A star with the middle punched out... It is very easy to
make it using 1/4" white ribbon - understand? (I can never figure out a good
way to explain this)
