Is it ripstop nylon? You know, like parachute cloth? That will definitely be too light, but this picture doesn't really look like that.
Once you know how to use the machine, though, a whole new world opens up.

No, it is ripstop cotton like the old summer weight BDU's were made out of. I am not giving up, I was having a blast until I couldn't figure out how to use the darn machine. No worries, after Boy Scouts, I'll get back to it.

Is it heavy enough that you'd wear a pair of trousers made out of it to do yard work or the like? If so, it's probably heavy enough.
What don't you understand about your machine? And what's the make and model?
