So if I buy my fabric at around 8.99$ a yd and pay shipping on line its still much cheaper for me and I usually buy loads at a time.
There is a site called XE Conversions.com and it gives you all the currency values if you ever want to check it out. The Euro go up and mostly down like a yo yo.

Thanks for the link. I'm sure most of us that shop in the US live in the US. So we don't need to convert. I don't know of any of us that shop outside the US unless you're looking for a specific fabric not carried here. Do the websites automatically convert for you or do you have to figure it out before you place your order. Just wondering since I don't shop in a foreign currency. Just curious here so I thought I'd try to satisfy my curiosity and inform others if anyone else wants to know.
