    which wal-mart(s) in greensboro are you finding it. i`ve been a couple times to the one on wendover near I40, but they didn`t have much in the $1.00 stuff.
    I too will something make and joy in it's making

    I always go to the wendover store - the battleground store never has anything. I don't know when you've been here, but the store on wendover has had the ripstop I mentioned for at least 3 months. There's 2 15-yard bolts that I know of, maybe more.

    If you want, I can pick some up and hold it for you...

    I'm stocking up. Once I get settled and inventory what I really have, I'll probably offer some of it up to folks who can't find any. Cost plus shipping or something. Probably keeping the olive drab to mehself, though...

    I stopped at a Walmart on my way to my parents house yesterday and acquired 15 yds of olive drab 1.1 oz DWR. A nice little Christmas present to myself. Now only if I cold find some sil. I am putting my family in charge of stopping back at this Walmart to see if they get anything else in.
    Is that too much to ask? Girls with frikkin' lasers on their heads?

    Better leave the family a sample, Nate. I gave my MIL a small square of ripstop, DWR and sil that she keeps in her purse for me...

    I did that. I figured there is no way I could describe to them over the phone what to look for.

    i made a big score today!
    i went to two wal-marts (one in greensboro, thanks BB, & one in thomasville).
    i bought a total of a little over 50 yards of fabric.
    it was all rip stop except for about 3 & 1/2 yrds of a thin black nylon that would make a good quilt liner.
    mostly dark green & grey.
    I too will something make and joy in it's making
