Flying the Tartan (No, not a "fly plaid")
Okay, it's kinky, weird and unusual, but I want to make a tartan flag for the new flagpole in my garden - no insignia, just a bright, beautiful piece of my tartan. The visitors and neighbours who don't understand can jolly well ask. It's going to be a local conversation piece of course!
Flags hereabouts are normally six foot by three. Of course, I'm going to have to hem the edges and add a hoisting strip with a proper cord sewn in. I can do that, but I'll need sewing advice too, once you advise me on materials.
So: question one for now, is what material would the Rabble suggest. PV? (Certainly not wool, I'm sure!) Acrylic? Something else?
It has to be able to be sewn and stand up to wind, rain, and sun without fading too quickly.
Once you decide for me what material to use, then you'll start helping me to source it. Sinclair modern of course! 
What say ye, Great Rabble? (Again, yes, I know it's kinky, weird and unusual, so don't bother with that part, just what material you'd suggest.)
Cheers & Blessings,
