$22-$28.00 plus per metre in Western Australia!! We do have some discount fabric stores that sell quilt fabric cheaper than that, but they don't have the same range that quilt stores do. Fat quarters are about $6.00 plus. The exchange rate is about dollar for dollar at the moment, so you can see its not a cheap hobby! I buy quite a bit on line from Favourite Fabrics and Old Country Store in the US, and even with the postage it works out about half the price of buying in Australia.
