Reuter's News describes the impact since June 2010, of Rising Cotton Prices on everyone, all the way from the manufacturers right up to the end consumer.
And it appears these increases will continue, since many of the initial causes which prompted rising prices, continue to occur.

Very interesting article, all-be-it somewhat depressing, - we quilters will have to tighten our collective measuring tapes (or belts, as the saying goes ) :XD: :XD:
Hopefully, Mother Nature will smile down on us in the next few coming months (years?) and the Cotton Crops can be rebuilt and harvesting will become plentiful once again. :roll: :roll: :roll:
