    Question ripstop cotton uses?

    i bought almost 12 yards of unknown ripstop material from wally world at $2.95/yd. it was late so i didn't pay much attention to it but when i got home i realized that it wasn't nylon.

    it looks like it could be cotton, but it definitely is ripstop. any suggestions as to what i could use it for?

    I used some to make a stuff sack for my cooking pot. The dang thing rattles like crazy so I wanted something that would absorb a little shock. Worked fine, but need to make a new one; this one sticks.

    Depending on what it weighs, cotton rip stop is great for kilts
