Maryland Sutler - Brit Blue-Grey Kersey question

[neocelt]

I'm trying to determine what the Maryland Sutler charges for his unfinished British blue-grey kersey. I've called and emailed, but as yet have not rec'd. a response--I s'pect he's out of town for the holidays or whatever. Anyone know the price of this fabric?

Thanks in advance for your kind assistance,
A.

I paid $40/yard plus shipping for the last two yards I got a year or so ago. According to this thread all they have left now is the unfinished kersey.

I found that phone calls were the best way to get in touch the two times I ordered from them, but that wasn't 100% reliable, either.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, Dan!

As I said, I've left messages on their voicemail and have emailed as well. No worries. I just needed to know the retail price, as I dug out a large piece (11 yds) of the unfinished stuff I bought from Pat several years ago and as I'm never going to get around to the project I had in mind (imagine that!), I'm going to put it up for sale here later today. I had no idea what to ask for it. Again, many thanks, pard!

It's important to recognize that the current K1 Kersey from CC is more grey in color, and less blue. I cannot speak for the original poster, but it may be that they are looking for the bluer English Import cloth.
