"Dutch of the Month Club" offering for March is ...(drumroll)... ARGON SHIELD!!!!! :boggle:
10 yards of woodland camo ordered and headed my way :) going to make a superfly clone with it, should be sweet!

Yeahhhhh! My orders in! Now twiddling thumbs, waiting for the postman... Let's see who is the first to post a pic of a tarp made with the lightest sil to ever hit the market!
I ordered 8 yards in black. Want to make a custom tarp for my custom hammock.

This has been added to my near future purchase list in black and red.
I also thought a black and red tarp with sharp lines would look very cool :cool: I don't have the skills yet, but I want to make something like smokehouse's honeymoon suite tarp. That thing looks perfect for 2 under 1 tarp. If you have seen this tarp, it has multiple pieces of fabric, and I thought a black and red one would be pretty slick:thumbup1:

This would be my first tarp project. I will have to work up my courage, but I will.
I think the black will be nice. My hammock is a 9-footer in woodland camo, so I want to make an 8 x 10 with doors, no cat cuts and with a grograin ridgeline. Not sure about all the details. Since this is my first tarp, I expect I will put a good bit of thought into it. I have decided to call it The Hillbilly Black Rhino Tarp. I hope my sewing skills will be worthy of the name.
I will post some picks of the raw material, so that all may bask in the Argon beauty :cool:

it might be worth thinking about adding some cat cuts to the bottom sides, they really help with keeping the tarp taunt and really aren't much harder to do than a straight seam, just use lots of pins and go slow, with a straight edge along the bottom of your tarp it's hard to get the tarp to pitch without the edges flapping a bit

That's a great offering, Dutch!
