I have a question, though. How'd you do the black rose logo on the sails?
Silkscreen or something? What fabric did you use for the sails? While I'm
not doing Pirates ATM (I'm getting things in place for some castle stuff) I
want to use my pirate ships but with different "non-pirate" sails. I just
haven't looked around much, yet, to figure out what works best.

Thanks for any suggestions you (or anyone) can make.

The black rose on the sails is done with iron on fabric. It's the same stuff
you would buy to patch some clothing.  It comes in different weights and I
use the lighter weight.

I hope that helps you to make some sails!  I'll look forward to seeing what
you create.

That's great info. Thanks for explaining it. It'll be some time before I get
