one of our lqs sell wool on the bolt for $60 a yard!
thrift stores are the way to go! that is where i get most of mine! i do on occassion purchase a piece of dyed wool, but i prefer to dye my own.
i have used the marcus brothers wool blend bundles. they work fine...but i really like working with 100% wool...it just feels better. i go to thrift stores and yard sales buy any and all 100% wool garments, take them home cut them apart wash in hot water, rinse in cold, toss in dryer...ready for anything! and my black wool hand appliqued quilt (all the appliques done with (recycled wool) was appraised for $3700...so using recycled wool instead of $60 a yard wool does not take away from a quilt's value...if anything it increases the value :thumbup:
