Is it part of the upholstery or is it just a separate flag?  
i.e. Is it all sewn together or is the flag just hung up?

Not much can be done. That’s the risk of ordering custom made Works…sometimes it takes a while.

A set for a friend of mine should be showing up at my apartment tomorrow. Not sure when he ordered though.
