Anyone know where I can find a checkered flag pattern to use for "fill" or how to make one?
 
The mesh tool in Illustrator will handle that as a start. Just change the strokes to outlines, do alternate fills via the magic wand select, and do distortions to give yourself any waving effect.
 
Oh boy, sounds complicated. Just haven't used the mesh tool much yet but I'll give a shot. Thanks for starting me in the right direction. Probably have more specific questions once I get started.
Thanks again!
 
Ok, I drew a square, clicked on the centered dot and got 4 boxes with the mesh button. Then I clicked in the center of each of those four boxes and now have 16 but I can't figure out how to every other box with black. Got it to "fill" once but only in part of the "flag" and the color faded around the edges. Now what?
