Hi all, I am looking for fabric to make sun ‘screen’ for my baby’s stroller. Preferably, it would be something somewhat sheer & breathable — any ideas? Thanks in advance!

sheer and breathable will let UV rays in at your baby. Either buy something very dense to block the sun or look for fabric that actually is made to shield UV rays.
I saw a product on the Rit Dye website that will "sunscreen" fabric. You wash it in and it reflects the sun away........ You could take a look at it and see if it is what you are looking for. I am not sure what kind of fabric it will work on, but it seemed interesting.
Hope this helped!!
