She stated the $3.00 a yard was ONLY for the grand opening.After the sale was off she raised the price to $4.00 a yard.Two weeks later they went up to $8.00 a Yard.I can still buy Name brand fabrics for $7.95 where I live.Moda,Rjr,Kauffman,SSI ect.,so for me the price jump is outragious.,Kris

At some of the shops I've shopped at lately, $8 is still pretty cheap.

If you are in northern Indiana, have you ever shopped Lolly's bargain basement in Shipshewana? Everything in the basement is $5.95/yd. It's nice fabric too. Real good hand.

What do you mean, BellaBoo? I buy direct from the manufacturers' own warehouses (you can't get more direct than that) but still the wholesale price of all prints are well over $5 / yard.

What kind of fabric warehouse are you referring to? The ones that buy closeouts? I'm confused...

Obviously she's talking about overstock clearance prices on fabric no one wants. Wholesale prices on quilt shop grade fabrics haven't been under $4.00 for 15 years or more...
