Hi Tony, the Kite Studio has a gazillion yards in stock

CLIFF

Don't I wish! Sorry Cliff, I called STeve right before the convention, and he was sold out of brown. That's why I used Designmaster point to make the brown parts of my figure kite.

I need a source for some brown ripstop.  I made a kite for my sister of her Airedale Terrier and used all the brown I had.  I haven't seen any on the kite supply sites for a while.  Any suggestions?

if necessary, I have seen some on a European supplier
Low price non-coated fabric, but brown

Can I supply the link here ?

Links to help other kiters are fine. Just don't do blatant outright advertising except in the store section.

Thanks for the suggestions.  I got the dye suggestion on another forum and it looked pretty good.  I don't NEED the brown right now but might need it and want to look at my options.

What is shipping like from the Volango store?  Have you tried them?

No problem but I am living in France so it is easy.

While shopping in the craft store today, I found a new product. It is called idye Poly by Jacquard. It is dye designed for 100% poly or nylon fabric. Most dyes, like Rit or Dylon are designed by natural fibers and don't work very well on nylon.
I will test this weekend and report back.

I am some How many yard do you need?
