Confederate Replica Flags

[JeffCSA]

I want to have a reproduction of a flag that is in a museum. Who does good work on flag reproductions? I know there is a lady in South Carolina and a gentleman in Georgia. Both have websites. Anyone with knowledge to share about this?

I really don't know, our regimental flag was made by one of our members. Never shopped for one but i'll ask around. Maybe @Tailor Pete @Package4 or James N. might know.

Welcome to CWT from the Smoky Mountain side of North Carolina.

These folks sell high-quality flag kits with as close-to-correct materials that you can get. Not sure if they'll make a custom one for you but maybe you can use the kit as a basis for what you're after?:

I have seen flags made from bnbtart.com kits, and in the right hands, they come about as close to an original as you can get.

Problem lies in recreating the more unusual flags... especially when matching fabrics. Early in the war, it seems that many women were sewing flags made from their very own dresses (something that I believe is over dramatized in the period media sources) which if true, makes accurate reproductions difficult.
