    1. Thank you, Willz. I rather like the overall simplicity of the design, with the damask adding just that touch of sophistication. :-)

      All the best,

      David.

    1. Thank you, Steve. :-) I rather like it too - some of the more complicated designs can be a bit overwhelming, I feel (especially for cavalry standards where the final printouts will probably be tiny), but don't tell anyone I said that... ;-)

      All the best,

      David.

      David.
