Okay guys...beat me up if you want, (since I've been gone off this site for three months)...
But I am having a serious case of cerebrial flatuence...:eek:

So sorry to have to bring this up again...(But I couldn't find ANY references on the site)...

Does ANYONE know of a good flag maker here in the US that can make a custom set of Confederate Unit Colors?

Please let me know and include links...

I know that Ruffin used to do this stuff back in "the old days", but nowadays it seems like they've gone the Wal-mart way..(cheaper)...:(

So please help me out?

Thanks!

Why don't you contact our own Colonel Julian as, if you remember, we had a battalion flag made last year....

Can't go wrong with Ben Tart, I have several from him. I also second Drew Gruber, I have a 1st national that he made early on and love it.

Thanks Eric for throwing my name out there!

Here are a couple of flags I made for our unit (13th N.J.V./ Stockton Guards) last year for LH's. I'm making a Battle Flag for or 5th Texas event in G-Burg this coming Aug. Hope you like the pix.

I knew you were an artist, but thats nice stuff Art. Is that first flag a camp color/general guide?

I 'll second what Ross said. Just out of curiosity, how long did it take for you to make the Indiana flag? Great work!!!

Thanks for the complement guys!
Ross, You do great work also. It's a camp flag and it took about a week to make a few hours at a clip. It measures 40x40 ins. It was used at the rear of the company on the march as a guide. It turned some heads!

Thanks!
