After reading all the posts about fabric costs at LQSs I thought I would share my most recent experience. On my last visit to my LQS in Ephrata PA I didn't notice that the cost of yardage had gone up very much. I was on a mission to find some "butterscotch" color for an upcoming project. Now I'm not one to pay particular attention to costs when I need something special, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that one piece was $6.95 and the other was $7.20. Both fabrics are Benartex and feel like silk.
I was at JoAnn's last week to use my coupon on some batting and checked their fabrics...
If I hadn't spent all my birthday cash I would be back at my favorite LQS to stock up.
