Hello fursuit makers!
I live in Campbell River and, up here, it seems that finding fursuit materials is rare. I've been to fabricland here, and there wasn't any upholstery foam for making a fursuit head. I managed to find another place that sells foam, but I found the customer service was very poor, and, the price of the foam was overpriced. 60$ for 1m x 1m of 1 1/2" foam! I can travel probably as for to Nainamo to buy foam, but I am not interested to getting a hold of people who want to individually sell foam, so, my question is -
Where can I get foam in on Vancouver Island, preferably close to CR? Maybe theres some sewing shops in Comox/Courtany or Nainamo that sells some.
If you want to check out my fursuit so far, here it is! Roxley is a lavender husky character of mine. Its pinned so far.

It's a great place. You can also get the scraps for free sometimes. c:

If you highlight the foam shop your brouser will bring up several shops in the Vancouver district. Didn't see any on the island however.
