Have you looked at fabrics-store.com? I've always been happy with their stuff.

Yes, I've bought from them as well. Interestingly, I've noticed that many of the fabrics I'm interested in are often carried by both companies, and at the same price...

Thanks, but those will not do. It must be a very particular type of orange called Blaze or Hunter orange....almost electric neon in color.

JoAnn is having a sale on anti-pill fleece...4 dollars a yard, so I will likely go get some of that. Junk fabric, but I will use Kass' jupon pattern..it will give me some experience with that pattern and be the right color..and keep me warm in the cold.

As I said, horrid to look at but period clothing and satisfying the mundane law too. Some sacrifices will have to be made. Students will see it at NS too...misery loves company after all.

Okay. I was just hoping one of those oranges would be a color match.... would have to get some samples in order to compare though.

I suspect it would be impossible to get linen that color. I never even see cotton in that color..only synthetics. Some states are not so..anal..about it, but this one is, and big time.

I have modern hunting vest and hat in the proper color..it hurts the eyes first thing, especially in the sun. The vest is at least reversible to cammo.

I knew going in that there would have to be sacrifices...this one is just rather hard on the eyes. LOL Small matter overall. Thanks for trying.

It was worth a shot. *sighs* I think the closest we have in the house is L's silk tunic :D

So, evil fabric it is :P

I am afraid so. I have found some items made of cotton in that color, but no fabric available. Eh, at least the fleece will be warm. ;)
