    They used to be on dwflags.com, but I don't see them there anymore. See if Dutchwaregear.com or one of the other cottage venders will custome make some for you.

    There was a contest awhile back for who came up with the best color design, I really liked the glow-in-the-dark flag and the orange flag.

    A patch has the stitching/design on one side.

    A flag is, essentially two patches sewn together back to back, with a channel added to it can go on a rope/pole.

    At least that's the way it seemed to me, back when I researched them.
