Kate Lacey SHA + click image(s) to enlarge
Counted cross stitch pattern-maker and embroiderer. I passed The Heraldry Society Advanced Examination in 1987. Since then I have run Introduction to Heraldry art courses and associated activities. I now research design, make patterns and cross stitch heraldic subjects. My cross stitch patterns are made in the traditional manual way – squared paper, graticules and my technical drawing instruments.
I offer two different designs:
1. An appropriate charge with the surname beneath and a decorative border.
2. An appropriate charge and motto with a decorative border.

Dr. Antonio Salmeron SHA The aim of my heraldic art is to transmit the life force and free expression of a coat of arms - the blend of ideals and the history of its bearer.
The creation is drawn entirely by hand and the resulting image is then enhanced by a unique combination of digital imaging procedures.
Commissions have come from individuals, businesses, associations, religious orders and universities. I have satisfied customers in Australia, Chile, France, Italy, Mexico, New Zealand, Spain, South Africa, the United Kingdom, the USA.
I hold a PhD cum laude, a Masters degree, a Specialization and an Academic Grade from four different universities.
