Good places to get silnylon for diy tarp?

Anyone know of some good sites to get silnylon from for doing a diy tarp? I've seen a couple of sites that have pretty good prices but very limited colors. Would love to find some camo. Also the less weight the better.

I just got mine from Quest Outfitters. I'm pretty sure they had camo in 2nds so it's about $5.20 a yard by 65" wide. Good quality and fast shipping.

Seattle fabrics has a large selection of colors but they arn't the cheapest out there.

+1 on DIY Gear Supply. Just got 8 yards of 1.1oz sil 2nds and don't see a single defect. YMMV

My fabric hunts follow this path:
1. Www.DIYGearSupply.com
2. Www.OWFINC.com
3. Www.QuestOutfitters.com

There are many other places but these 3 have a combination of good selection, prices and service. Since they cater to DIY backpackers, they know what we are looking for and show the pertinent specs - no mystery fabrics.

thanks guys....I've seen DIY Gear Supply, def like their prices just wondering if there were places that had some different colors and what not. The green thats on DIY GS is that a dark green or bright green anyone know? Kinda hard to tell on picture.
