    Does anybody have a good source for heavy solid colour fabric?

    Would any of my fellow X-Markers happen to know where I can procure some 16oz worsted wool with a kilting selvage in a solid maroon shade?

    I don't know about the specific weight or a selvedge, but Jas Townsend has good quality material.

    B Black also has nice wools with weights listed (or quickly available through e-mail inquiry, in my experience). They should also be able to check the selvedge quality for you. I don't see any maroon at the moment but their Los Angeles store is huge and they probably don't list everything online.

    Also keep an eye on eBay for random availability, if you are not in a time crunch.

    I could probably get you something from Marton Mills. I'm in Ohio too.
