I remember when the fat quarters were 99 cents - they are now $1.99 and Hancock's are the same price. Consider yourself lucky to get one for $1.29. I think I have gotten to the point where I will buy 1/4 yard of fabric now (actually, I liked the design on some of the fat quarters and it was a lot easier to pick out ten rather than stand and wait for 10 quarters to be cut by the attendant. They don't particularly care to cut 1/4 yards. So, their loss. If I can find a yard of fabric for $4.00, I'll be back to my fat quarters of 99 cents plus a penny! Edie
