    Oops!

    Making a minimalist tarp, 68x110" of DIY silnylon for UL camping -- the roll of MARPAT from Magna ran out of camo print. It's okay because it's still a stealthy olive and it looks like the color returns deeper in the roll. Not complaining because of the bargain price. Plan to like the effect when it is finished:

    Please keep us informed on the DIY sil process. I hope to do exactly what you're doing after I'm done making a a bunch of quilts for relatives.

    Okay, the camo print returned in force after 3 feet for stuff sacks and a 20' cut for a DL hammock.

    Next were (4) 10' hammocks for Christmas presents and two sides of a big tarp with 12' ridgeline. Got them cut today out on the drive way before the storm hit. Had already made a 10' hammock, which is now my main one. Looks like there is plenty left over -- must have been a very good deal on that roll from Magna.
