"wanted" canvas for tent

[vectrum]

Hello all. Iv got it In my head that im going to make a pavilion tent. Im a coach trimmer by trade so im quite good with a sewing machine and working things out.
So im sitting here going through all the items im going to need to complete my first tent.. I say first as my better half says I have to make a small one first to get the jist of it.
So my question is can anyone point me out to a good supplier of canvas that will not cost me an arm and a leg?

For really good quality tent weight canvas we used Whaleys of Bradford.

Good service, not massively cheap but you get what you pay for.

Bradford ones are good or anything label d as a heavy cotton canvas that has the company's name embroidered into the bottom edge as my mill worker dad put "people don't put there name on s***"
