    The widest I know of is 120" and depending on what you want, Dazian, SewWhatInc or Exclusively Expo would be possible resources.

    really depends on the type of fabric, many come in large widths and are available all over, most theatrical fabrics are pretty specialized and therefore harder to get through a standard supplier. You might try a large Upholstery Supplier. I don't know of any in the DFW area off the top of my head. Texas Scenic might carry a stock of stuff they might be willing to sell...

    Wal Mart actually carries a 120" wide muslin, pretty cheap. NOT terribly good quality (wouldn't cover a flat in it) but decent for limited use.
