Yes, this looks exactly like what I order from www.tableclothsfactory.com. It is 60" wide. Personally, I prefer a wider hammock, but I've gotten kinda spoiled with my 90" wide crinkle taffeta hammock. That is a great price for fabric, though...plus free shipping. I believe the seller is the same fabric warehouse that opens once a month to the public. I have shopped there twice buying fabric for hammocks and other projects. I was going to buy 60" blanks to make my girls new hammocks, but this would be a cheaper solution. Hmmm, I need to see if they offer other colors on Ebay. BTW, I have made several out of that navy blue and it is a really nice color. There is one waiting for me to make a DL with silver for the inside layer sitting in my living room right now.

Well it's not a $1.00 a yard as it appears when you go to buy it it's $6.99 a yrd the $1.00 is for a sample FYI
In that case, I think buying the blanks from www.tableclothsfactory.com is a better deal and they come with pre-hemmed edges.

Tableclothfacory looks like a great deal for that fabric. I had no idea...Bush
What is the weight of one these taffeta hammocks...and how much weight can they support?

I have not been offering the crinkly nylons as a hammock fabric, but if someone is interested we have this in first quality at only $1.25 a yard
