Hey guys, I bought a whole bunch of cheap ripstop at walmart a couple of years ago, right before they quit selling it. Ive had a blast with it, and done all sorts of projects, but now Im almost out. Anysuggestions for another source?

FYI: If you want to know what type a certain bear is, sneak up behind it and kick it. Then,
run like crazy and climb up a tree. If the bear climbs the tree and eats you, it's a black
bear. If the bear just pushes the tree over and eats you, it's a grizzly bear : )
Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me, either, just leave me alone.

Obviously, I should recommend Backwoods Daydreamer, but also check out www.owfinc.com. They've got some of the better prices around on materials, and if you buy 20yds of a fabric, you get it at the discount price.

noah lamport- best know for 3$/yd silnylon, but have many other fabrics as well...
All of the Wally Worlds on the north side of town have gotten rid of their fabric departments. Even Jo-Ann Fabric had stopped carrying ripstop. You might want to call a couple of the Walmarts in the southern part of the state to see if they still have fabric.
FWIW, I purchased fabric from Scott at BWDD and can highly recommend him and his products. He's going on vacation til the end of the month so order now if you want it before December.
If you have Hancock Fabric stores in your area, check them out.
Joann also.
Both have frequent coupons that dramatically reduce the price, and clearance fabric sections (bought some nice camo nylon for $1.50/yd at Joann last week), and you don't have to wait for it to be shipped.

I've recently run out of the Green 1.1 ripstop I got from Scott... Good Stuff...Originally Posted by sclittlefield
At $3/yd, it's hard to beat, and is really wide. Makes a great hammock.

I just got the 1.1 Ripstop in Gray that I ordered. I was really impressed by the service and speed of delivery time. I highly recommend him for a good price on materials along with great service.
