Reversible fabric for tarp and pack cover.

[Beast 71]

Firearm deer season is here again tomorrow and that has me thinking blaze orange. I would like a blaze orange or preferably a blaze camo tarp for hunting. My pack is camo and it would be a good idea to blaze that up too. I would also like either a white or snow camo pack cover,for winter too and I got to thinking why not a reversible pack cover and then I thought a reversible tarp would be pretty neat, so I started googling reversible blaze orange fabric and I found nothing. Does anyone know a source for reversible waterproof fabric that would fit my needs ? If not, does any one know a way to mend two different waterproof fabrics together in such a way as to not effect the water proof qualities ? Or,would I be better off with two different tarps and pack covers ?

Thanks,
B

It would increase the weight (double) but you could sew two pieces of DWR treated fabric together "back-to-back" or with the non WP sides on the inside, before making your desired piece of gear.

I was thinking the same thing, kinda like a quilt, but that would lead to alot of seem sealing and alot of potential for it to fail and leak, do you know of any adhesive that would allow two pieces of fabric to be glued back to back ?

I don't, sorry. Maybe some of the more experienced DIYers have some better ideas. Good luck!
