    Thank you so much! Very happy that you liked it :) Yes they do take a little while to make, but easier after lots of repetition

    Many thanks for your message! Unfortunately I’m currently travelling without my machines, so at the moment I couldn’t make any. This size seams to be between £25 - £40 among UK flag makers though. The variation likely being which fabrics they are using :)

    Thank you so much, really happy that you like it! This one was made in cotton. Natural fabrics have more visual texture, which I like :)

    This is so gorgeously sewn! Wonderful work! One question: this is clearly a one-sided flag design, but if it had words, it wouldn't work. What's the preferred method for a double sided lag design?

    Thank you for your message. Yes you're right, if it was a complex double sided design, then you would need to make 2 flags and sew them back to back. Or just make 2 sets of the words and sew one on each side 👍

    Thank you! I was using cotton for this one, however I would suggest a polyester for sustained outdoor use because cotton dye will run when wet :)

    This one was cotton fabric at 150gsm. Anything up to 200gsm works really well for a flag. For sustained outdoor use I might recommend polyester though, because cotton will run when wet
