When we were desperate, we'd just get a muslin drop cloth from the hardware store and use that. Hell, the Moron Life clubhouse backdrop is just a HUGE muslin dropcloth that we painted.

You can pick up muslin super cheap at any fabric store. Just buy it several yards long and sew it to the width you want, perhaps with a 'drawstring' like foldover at top and bottom for cords to tie it up with?

There's an easy fabric store on Mass Ave in Arlington Heights close to the Foodmaster.

I'd try calling Pearl Art and Craft to see if they sell it by the yard. If not, call Sew Lo (aka the fabric store near live poultry fresh killed).

Pearl alleges to sell rolls of canvas, but muslin is probably cheaper...

Canvas would prolly be more durable, but you can cheat and go to the Salvation Army and buy some plain white sheets.
it is short term, but you can usually double them up and make them last.

you can't have it all.. but you can have enough for a banner.
