Greetings!

I am looking for any recommendations for a vendor who makes period correct surcoats for the following:

1. Custom Surcoat with heraldry for Gilbert De Clare ( Earl of Gloucester). date 1314.
2. Surcoat and robe ( or cloak) for Knight Hospitaller ( ca. 1140-1200).

On a side note, I am also looking for a maker of quality viking shields who is capable of producing a shield with some of the more elaborate shield decorations( painting).

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Jessica Finley makes good Custom Surcoats with whatever you want for the heraldry Shes here on the forums if you you'd like to message her

Have you considered doing it yourself? I made my own 1250-ish Hospitaller surcoat. It's not hard. No complicated heraldic patterns

I am not good at sewing. However, if I had a pattern, I would be willing to try.

Here is the pattern I used for my robe.

The pattern I used is basically this but without the sleeves: http://www.personal.utulsa.edu/~marc-carlson/cloth/type1.html

I finished the neck and arm openings with facings on the inside. Pictures and various other ramblings in this thread: http://www.myArmoury.com/talk/viewtopic.php?t=20306
