WTB: Muslin Backdrop

[bishopthomas]

I'm looking for a backdrop/cyc approximately 16' x 30'. It doesn't necessarily have to be Muslin or those exact dimensions, but something along those lines. It's for a portable rig, needs to be able to tie to truss, and is usually ground supported by 16' lifts. Just looking for something to take light from all these LED's I have. Also, it needs to be treated to be flame retardant. I don't think any of my usual venues would ask for it, but paperwork would be nice if you have it.

Many of the event drapery sellers have 120" wide goods. They can also sew something for you.

Stage Curtains, Custom Theatrical Drapery, Stage Curtain Tracks, Theatrical Drapery Supplies
RoseBrand.com: Theatrical fabrics, stage curtains, backdrops, hardware and accessories
Dazian Fabrics
Melfabco, manufacturers and converters of theatrical and institutional fabrics and carpeting
Exclusively Expo, Inc.

Adding grommets and tie line, etc., would be fairly easy.

Thanks for the links. I knew about Sew What? and have ordered from Rosebrand in the past, just looking for a theatre looking to "upgrade." I found Chicago Canvas & Supply and they seem to sell muslin in extra wide widths. 120" won't do as it needs to be at least 14-16'. Seemless would be great, so I'm going to call Chicago Canvas tomorrow to make sure the widths they list are sans seems. I want a hem, not a surge, right? I'm pretty sure I know the difference but can't remember which is more common. Also, 14' would hang fairly well and would not need a chain for indoor use, right?

Hmmm..... Maybe I should be asking these questions in a different forum. Keeping on topic, if anyone can answer these questions AND provide me with a backdrop that fits my needs please let me know!
