Her proposed arms are: Per bend azure and vert, two bees volant Or, on a bend argent bendwise a threaded needle sable. Her proposed badge is: Fieldless, a bee volant Or within a voided lozenge azure. I haven't found clear conflicts for either - though I may have missed something (please let me know what and where if you see something amiss) - so my main question regards the feasibility of getting them passed; eg. if there are period practice issues, etc. Any assistance would be most appreciated. Also I've had trouble subscribing to the An Tir list so if someone could forward this there that would be great. Thanks much.

I'm sorry - I'm unable to do conflict checks right now. A fieldless badge must have all of the elements conjoined, which would be a small matter in your design. Just make the bee large enough that it touches the inside edges of the lozenge in one or more places.

I'm sorry I didn't catch this earlier. The voided lozenge is called a mascle. http://badger.cx/heraldry/roll/search.php?data=mascle&type=blazon Doireann
