Thread: I found Vera Bradley fabrics sold by the yard...

nygal, shipping is $5. http://sportingnow.com/index.php?rou...formation_id=6

Everything is made in China anyway so might as well buy direct.

Is this authentic? I was just talking about Vera Bradley yardage with my friend over the weekend. Is there anyway to know that it is authentic?

Unfortunately, I do believe most if not all fabric is "made" in China these days.....how about the batiks...these are done somewhere in the mideast or some third world island somewhere are they not??????

I have to disagree. I personally am interested in the fabrics for backings. Vera Bradley has some very unique prints that I would love to have on the reverse of a quilt. I am not into quilted bags or accessories so a pre-quilted piece of Vera Bradley wouldn't peak my interest at all but that is me. Just because you don't like something does not mean that others may not and it does not justify an attack on other people's creativity or originality.

I just had a customer quilt where the salvages had been left on the edges of the backing and it said the fabric was made in Japan. It was new fabric too and very good quality.
