Hi Pete,

I cant post pics but my suggestion is to put seperately into the search engine under the Flag forum option "Ortsgruppe" , "Daf" and Nsbo.

All of these flags usually have named Canton patches done in chain stitch.

I agree. Especially when it's used to do elaborate designs like what's shown here in post #6.

Here are some of my examples.
