I see online "muslin backdrop this" and "muslin backdrop that" somewhere in the vicinity of 10' x 20' for about a bazillion dollars. Im not in the position to justify that......... maybe never will be.
Here's my question... would there be anything wrong with going to somewhere like Joann Fabric and buying their discount muslin, then just dying it myself? or better yet..... a $2 blowout Target king sized sheet.. For practice with seated portraits I really don't need anything bigger than a couple yards by a few feet, and it would cost pennies by comparison.
Anyone else make their own backdrop? Are they photographically sound, or have you run into issues? I'm just tired of dumping money into the hobby right now, but not tired of acquiring stuff.
