emma kites Water Repellent 40D Ripstop Nylon Fabric 3 Yards x 60in Wide Lightweight Plain Material, Black

Good price, bright colour, good quality.

Fab material does the job perfectly

Used this to make a flag, it's now at best pale peach after only two weeks outside. The black I purchased with it has stayed solid.This fabric is rather stiff - which suits kites but not some other uses. That might be useful to someone. The weave is also rather uneven with the ripstop lines far from orthogonal. Just don't choose this colour.Photo is of a polyester fabric of the same colour, a fresh piece of this emmakites product showing it arrived the right colour and then the flag that's been out for two weeks.

Nothing like the picture. Colour is a pale and ugly peach.
