My favorite sources include Sailrite and Rockywoods Fabrics.<\/strong>.. and they have so much more to offer than I’ve listed below. JoAnn Fabrics is also useful for some supplies, and I’ve also gotten cording, webbing, and parachute buckles from a local store, Benchmark Outfitters (they cater to people who like to climb, kayak, hike, ski… you get the idea!)<\/p>
