That’s Primaloft Sport … a pretty good synthetic, almost as good a clo per oz as Primaloft One but not as compressible.

Seattle Fabrics lists Primaloft One for sale.

Note: Primaloft One needs to be quilted with fabric (or scrim) on each side … about every 6 inches. Primaloft Sport must be quilted to fabric on just one side and only when the piece is larger than 24″x24″.

Can't believe I didn't look at Seattle, just ordered some ballistics from them the other week.

It's interesting, my P-One DAS parka has so much less quilting than the Nanopuff, I wonder how much quilting is actually necessary. I reckon I'll find out.

Unfortunately, Seattle Fabrics has PrimaLoft One on back-order for another 3-4 weeks from today – that puts three of my MYOG projects on hold.

Why is it so difficult to find more then one supplier of PrimaLoft One???

*grumble*

Thank you for the link, Timo. I should have mentioned that I am searching for a U.S. supplier so that I can avoid international shipping costs. I wish we had an extremtextil.de supplier in the U.S. :(

Can Primaloft one be quilted to one piece of fabric if the scrim is left in place? Thinking that the top layer would then retain water resistance with the stitching/quilting holes on the inside layer.

Thanks Nigel

Rocky woods has primaloft one and you don't have to pay the crazy shipping and waiting time with seattle fabric by using rocky woods.

Hi,

I just talked to Bill at Rockywoods.com and they have Primaloft One, 3 ounce with scrim on one side in stock. They don't have any of the 1.8 ounce. He also said he was told by the makers of PR-1 that their was none in the US and he doesn't expect to see any till about fall.

What weight are you looking for?

Thanks for that insight Bill. Looks like I will be doing something else for a summer quilt this year. That 1.8 just seems like the best option. Hard to understand manufacturers not keeping their suppliers shelves stocked.
