Ed,
I am the 1902 mentor that makes flags and banners. I have been making flags for the local high school marching band for 6 years now. A normal size flag is usually 36 inches in height and about 52 inches long. For a flag that is going to be used on the field, I suggest using a poly-silk rather than house flag material. The poly-silk is much lighter in weight. If you want the flag to take some punishment though, house flag material is more durable. You can buy a polyester blend lining material at the fabric store, but your color options will be limited. The band orders all their material from thebandhall.com. Poly China silks run $2.50 per yard and come in lots of colors. If you have any more flag questions, need assistance in making a flag feel free to PM me.
Sarah
