28 x 40 in. Aloha (Hello, Goodbye, Love, Love to You) Printed Banner Flag

Each 28 x 40 in. banner flag is created using the highest quality print and colorfast UV grade dyes. They are manufactured in Germany in an environmentally conscious manner using inert dyes and an advanced reverse osmosis water reclamation technique that allows water used in production to be recycled multiple times.This flag is Single/Reversed Construction. This means that the image is on both sides, it will read correctly on the front side and reversed on the back. Aloha means, hello, goodbye, love or love to you. It is a word that represents Hawaii and the Hawaiian spirit well. In my design a beloved Hawaiian gecko climbs the letters of ALOHA to greet you. There are several varieties of Gecko on the Hawaiian Islands; this particular one is the colorful orangespotted day gecko. Geckos are everywhere in Hawaii and are believed to act as guardians. The background design combines a pineapple Hawaiian quilt block with a palaka print to honor the history of one of Hawaii�s traditional crops the pineapple. Palaka is a sturdy cloth historically used to make the clothing worn by plantation farmers and paniolos (cowboys). It was originally a blue and white checked pattern, but now can be found in bright colors and blended in with other patterns, as I have done here. Kate Pitner/Designer
