rochguardguy Posted April 29, 2011 Author Share Posted April 29, 2011 What's the design look like?? I wonder if you showed it to, for example, Fred J. Miller if they'd be able to tell you whether or not sewing would be more expensive than printing. I'd love to hear what they'd say to this! : ) Good luck on your quest! OH! and a group in Kentucky uses Stella's Silks. they had some nice printed flags this past fall. I have a very good sewer here in town that makes all of my flags and for other band/drum corps. But this design is so not straight forward I don't want to stress her out..lol It seems simple by reading about it, only black and white, but in encorporates alot of floating pieces to make the whole design work. hard to explain We'll figure it out, have plenty of time! thanks for all the suggestions and input!!!

skies Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Here's a little life hack: Seek out a local screenprinter, especially one that does some work with costuming. They may not have experience printing flag silks, but explain to them the dimensions, the materials, and that you need a slot for a pole, and they would more than likely glad to do it for $20 to $30 a piece. Googling "digital flag silks" will of course give you the big companies with ridiculous rates. Silkscreening on china silk isn't a big deal and if you pay more than $45 a piece, you're getting ripped off (assuming costs for artwork is not considered). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
