Fabric.com always sends a generous yard. Sometimes as much as 39"'
Also when I ordered braided trim from them last year it arrived untaped
and 1/2 yd had unravelled. They told me to keep that and sent a new perfect order. It was good to have extra because I always find that it is hard to match the braided ends....
Like David Went I love the free shipping if order is more than $35.
