If you find a good, high quality fabric and it sells for let's say $10.00 per yard you would spend $40.00 for it.
Yeah, easier said than done though. I want a cotton poly which should be fairly wrinkle resistant, but I can't find any anywhere that has the 12+ oz weight I want.
The characteristics I'm wanting are wrinkle resistance and a medium to heavy weight. I'd use denim or duck, but have read bad reports on its tendency to wrinkle.
