Head liner re-upholstery

This question is for anyone who has re-upholstered their headliner,
How much yardage did you guys use to re do the headliner? Also where did you get your fabrics from? i'm looking into doing mine in like a black suede. Thanks for any input

yeah adhesive 3m use 3 coats on the fabric 3 on headliner let dry for a few min then press together id suggest getting a roller or sumthin to even it out. but let dry for a day or so cause i had issues installing it a few hours later and it kept wanting to come down on me
