    I had to have mine made. Our clan sells our tartan in cotton at $11/yd, which is cheap. Then, I got a girlfriend to sew it up for me.

    A tent banner for $225? I had one just made at a local sign company for $69. I know the price of vinyl is going up, but jiminy!

    Yup. And you can get a kilt for $600 or $60. There is a range in everything. We spent a couple of hundred dollars on a really nice, high quality 10' long banner for the museum to display when we travel. I've also seen vinyl banners for a tenth of the cost we spent, but they were also a tenth of the quality.

    In other words, not all banners are created equal. And, I might add, you might notice that right below her $225 banner, she also offers a $50 banner.

    I'm not affiliated, I just have seen her banners, and I know she has a really god rep with local clan societies.
