CG...I went through hell and back to get that pattern! In a nutshell, while looking for surf related fabrics, I found a person selling large samples with which to make pillows and such. When I contacted them regarding a larger amount, I was informed that this Longboard pattern was made by Sunbrella exclusively for another company...but was now a discontinued pattern. I used my detective skills to hunt down leads which ended with finding someone that had a partial roll sitting on their shelf...so I purchased that roll, which happened to be in the color way I was looking for (Longboard was available in 4 color ways). It was hard to find, but in the end, I got lucky!
