Just about any fabric you would ever need. From mesh to sail material. The latest in goretex and silcoated.

Took me a long time to find these folks so I thought I would share.

I've also used this source with good success. I've talked with them on the phone - asking questions about specifics - and they've been very friendly.

I'll second Seattle Fabrics - since its local to Seattle, its a great store to stop in and shop around, their remmant bin is legendary for good finds. There just aren't enough shops around that are worth browsing, that will surprise you with their stuff from time to time - they also have a fantastic supply of cam buckles if that's the kind of stuff you need.

Once again, Thank you Mrs. Barker for teaching me to sew (sorta) in 7th grade Bachelor Survival class...

Funny about this sewing coming up. I am getting ready to make a Ray Jardine arctic quilt. I've been practicing my sewing on scraps, mostly the starting and finishing stitches. I'll check out the site for maybe a better material for the quilt.

Besides I'm a Homer for Seattle. I grew up on the Eastside.
