    Aysym tarps only need to be 60" or so inches wide so no RL seam required. Good luck!

    The thing about your budget is that it basically says you can't afford the going price of reliable tarps - which means you either have to throw money away gambling on tarps in your price range (been there, done that) or save your sheckels and wait. I'd wait - just get by with Wally World blue tarp till then - they work.

    No RL seam on an Asym tarp. http://diygearsupply.com/diy-guides/tarps/

    I am not doing the exchange for fabric anymore. I do have some tarp blanks that I can sell. Cut for an 11' ridge line hex tarp. Here is what I can do. I have 2 tarp blanks (cut to shape, not sewn) and 7 yards of sil in charcoal gray. I will sell all 3 for $100 shipped. I can even throw in some D rings and reinforcement material.

    Just go slow, make sure there is no fabric under there that shouldn't be there and you'll be OK.
