Finishing off a busy week, I have to share this stunning white with gold braid banner. If truth be told, it’s the first white banner I’ve ever made and it’s amazing!!

The biggest challenge I found with this was keeping it clean during the manufacturing process.

Plain colour double sided embroidered banners are available on my website to purchase at www.cordsandcovers.com/shop for only £95.

Everything is made to order at my workshop in 13 Harrow Inn Close, Elgin, Scotland…feel free to pop in and visit if local or visiting the area.

Don’t forget our new clothing range which is also available on our website at www.cordsandcovers.com/clothing Items are also available to view in store.

Another busy week next week in preparation for the World Pipe Band Championships and I look forward to sharing some fantastic pieces as I work towards supporting some of the bands that will be competing and preparing some bespoke tailor made items for some solo pipers.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Celebrating a remarkable milestone for Sinclair Memorial Pipe Band, Newtownstewart, County Tyrone, as they proudly mark 75 years of music and tradition, during the 2026 season.

To help commemorate the occasion, Cords and Covers has produced a bespoke anniversary banner, which will accompany the band throughout the 2026 season. The banner will make its debut at the Sinclairs Parade in Newtownstewart on 6th June 2026, and we look forward to seeing it on display at various events and parades throughout the year.

If your band, club, team, organisation, or community group has a special anniversary or upcoming event, why not celebrate it with a custom-designed banner? It's the perfect way to showcase your achievement, create lasting memories, and make your milestone truly stand out.

New bag covers for The Frontier Pipes and Drums — and they look incredible.

Crafted from durable Navy Sunbrella fabric and finished with Silver Braid, these covers feature an internal non-slip patch along with a zip and Velcro for a sealed snd secure fit. The standout feature has to be the stunning embroidered logo, with the rich gold detailing creating a bold contrast against the deep navy finish.

Designed to combine performance, durability, and style, these covers are built to withstand the demands of regular band use, being resistant to fading and water repellent.

We’re proud of how these turned out and can’t wait to see The Frontier Pipes and Drums showcasing them in action very soon.
