Hi guys. I'll bet you can help me: My wife has been looking for a fabric store in SA that would have a large selection of materials at a reasonable price. She specifically would like to find some fabrics which can be used to redo an old gazebo canopy that we inherited. Someone said that Austin has some good stores. Any ideas? Thanks!

For an outdoor canopy you will want to use a fabric that is very UV resistant such as "Sunbrella", as well the threads. I'm speaking from years of experience replacing sailboat awnings. One of the best places I found to buy these supplies is Sunbrella Marine Grade Fabrics, Sunbrella Furniture Fabrics, Sailcloth, Canvas Fabric and Sail Hardware, Ultrafeed Sewing Machines, Gill Foul Weather Gear and More!

They have a huge selection of colorful fabrics and patterns. Awning Fabric for Boat, Home or Industrial Applications

She might find some Sunbrella fabric here, they sell discounted fabrics, so if she finds one, it will be cheaper than most places probably:

Home Decorating Upholstery and Decorative Drapery Fabrics From Cutting Corners

The store is on Burnet Rd. in Austin.
