I questioned the owner of a local quilt shop why her FQ had gone up to $2.75 and $3.25 for batiks. She said the prices she was paying at the wholesaler were up and she really was only adding a 10% raise and sometimes 5% to make up for it. She told me was paying $ 7-8 for a bolt of fabric that last year cost her $5-6. It just means our stashes are growing in value.
