I wanted one back in the mid-ninties, and bought white flag material. The flag's size was determined by the flags they had for sale in craft stores, so I knew it would fit the pole. My flag pole is solid wood. U will need a sewing machine to do your seams, but they're real easy, since they're straight. U can use the album cover to enlarge the horse so he's real big, then transer him with a 6B (soft) pencil. I painted the horse on it with black acrylic paint, and a dab or red in the horse's eye. I noticed that the flag was a bit tranlucent, so I used the leftover piece of material to make another Poco Horse for the other side. My flag is signed by the Poco guys, but I don't carry it around much, because i walk with a cane these days.
We could learn a lot from crayons; some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, while others bright, some have weird names, but they all have learned to live together in the same box. ~Robert Fulghum
