emma kites Black Ripstop Nylon Fabric 40 Denier, Precut Piece 1-Yard: 60"x36", Ultra-Light Airtight Water Resistant Tear Proof, for Kite Flag Stuff Sack Bag Inflatable Windsock Pack Cover

I usually shop at hobby stores for my fabric, but with a tight schedule, I decided to order what I needed online. I was building a camping tarp and wanted something soft, easy to fold, and versatile enough to wrap up when needed. I didn’t want to go with a basic blue tarp, so I gave this a try—and I’m really glad I did. It met all my needs, and the quality is great. On my first trip, a branch fell onto the tarp, and it held up without a single tear. Bottom line: it’s solid and reliable.

This was great kite material to use for an art project, where I needed to do some sewing. Worked great and the material reminds me of what you'd find a windsock to be made from.

I bought this fabric to make a signal panel similar to a military VS-17 signal panel. The finished panel is a little under 36X60 , has 6 peek-a-boo tie down points, and is hemmed all the way around for durability. The finished project can be used as a wind break, ground cloth, sun shelter, emergency signal device , or a way point marker. This panel weighs almost nothing and takes up little space in may backpack. The price was right and was delivered promptly.

After discovering that Louisiana allows hunters to wear blaze pink for safety as opposed to blaze orange, I went in search of blaze pink hunting apparel. After being unable to find many items for sale, I decided to make my own. This fabric is a good pic for blaze pink - it's a hot neon color that will show up good in the woods. Unfortunately, it is thin and a bit sheer, so I added a liner to my vest to solve that problem. The other thing I don't like is that the fabric is a bit shiny and noisy. It makes noise when I move, kind of like a plastic bag. I'm still looking for another fabric that to possibly make another. So, it is not ideal for what I bought it for, but it was definitely not a waste of time or money. I'll just keep hunting for another hot pink fabric that is a bit thicker and more quiet. In the meantime, I think my vest will do nicely. It was inexpensive and easy to cut and sew. And I think it came out pretty cute!!

I can't speak to how well this material works for kites and the like, but it makes wonderful banner material, which is what I purchased it for. It's very easy to cut it to the desired size with a rotary cutter, stitch it with a sewing machine, and paint on it with acrylic paint. The paint dries nicely on the surface and does not bleed through to the back, and the material is flexible enough so that the paint on the surface folds with the fabric and does not crack or peel off. I stitched the cut edges with a zigzag stitch to prevent minor raveling of the material; you don't need to do more than that, which is nice. I also stitched small round circles on the corners, cut out the inside of the circles, and used it with a rope to tie it up. It is lightweight, and the next banners I make will have a dowel rod sleeve on the top to keep the banner fairly straight while it's hanging inside of a pop-up canopy.If you're looking for a good material that will easily accept acrylic paint to use for homemade banners, this is an excellent solution.

Nice fabric, came quickly but a lot thinner than I expected it to be.

It's a piece of fabric. What could go wrong??????

I didn’t know the thickness of this product when I ordered it.It is very thin,,,,see through thin.But it is very nice quality. The color is just as I hoped for.It came nicely packaged in a slip of sealed clear plastic.Five stars because of its quality.The site could give some sort of thickness info, just to assist the buyer.
