The purple and gold Falcon Tabard is worn by the Calontir Army at foreign wars. It is worn both by native Calontiri, and our allies. (Also note that the Fourth Company, archers, bards, war volunteers, etc. are all part of the Calontir Army and entitled to wear the tabard also.)

There is no one correct pattern or falcon image.

Fabric

Usually medium-weight cotton, sometimes linen for fancy activities.

Purple background, with gold/yellow falcon and trim

Pattern

Assembly

As an applique trick: I often use double sided fusible interfacing. I have an old computer monitor I'll hook up, pull the falcon image up on, and then trace onto the paper side of the interfacing. I'll then iron it to the yellow fabric, cut it out (the rigidity of the paper from the interfacing helps with this!) and then peel the paper and iron it to the tabard. The edges are then zig zag stitched down, but the interfacing helps keep it in place while I do. No having to pin it or worry about bunching! Remember to reverse the falcon image before you trace though! -John Chesey
