    I had the same experience this week with Joanna's and HeatNBond. The gal that worked there said she was sick about it because she used it all the time. So I went to Hancock's and it was on sale for $2.50 a yard. I asked her if they were going to discontinue it and she said not that she knew of. I bought 3 yards, I think I'll go back and buy some more.

    I think I bought my last wonder under at Hobby Lobby. That was in Oct. Not sure about the other brand.

I think it all relates back to their coupon gimmicks. I beleive they assume you will be using a coupon.
    EXACTLY that is a HUGE price increase and I was stunned! Yes of course I use a coupon but buying online at Joanns doesn't always allow for the discount they are offering, that is frustrating.

I get it at OverRainbow.com. Comes in black and white
    If you think of the fusible you use for embroidery, please try and post it here or pm me or do you think I can figure it on on the site you posted? I tried some Pelion this week and really didn't care for it...made my fabric feel thick and rubbery.

    Corky -does bosal interfacing sound right to you? I found it on overrainbow.com.
