i saw something at one online shop yesterday that nearly blew my socks off. they have two fabs i recognized from a precut selection ($5 per yard). $6.50 a yard plus shipping!

i still don't think any of it is worth as much as $5 per yard because of the weight of the material. it's very pretty and will be pleasant to work with, but not as "thick" as my favorite name brands. (but neither were those other name brand shop fabs at LQS prices, were they? :lol: )

i suppose "value" can be "calculated" in at least two different ways: (1) what you think should be the maximum price; or (2) the price of a yard of it at the lowest price available compared to the highest price you've seen.

proof once again that beauty and bargains are in the eye of the beholder. :lol:
