when I see some prices of fabric. I understand the higher the quality, the higher the price but what is a good price? I went to my LQS today, first time, and was just looking around since I had my DD with me. One fabric was $13.25/yd! It was nice fabric but still. I didn't catch the designer name...I was too shocked over the price to think to look. I have only shopped at JoAnn's and Hobby Lobby currently and even their prices shock me sometimes.
So what is a bargain on nice quality fabric? Help me get over my shock. lol
Thanks!
I can't answer your question, but I rarely buy fabric from the Hancock's and Hobby Lobby in my city anymore. I almost (notice I said almost) buy exclusively from
www.connectingthreads.com now. They have (in my humble opinion) the best quality quilting fabrics and collections, with the best threads to match, and free shipping if you buy a certain amount (and I always do.) They are always having sales, they have fat quarters, strips, charms, etc. and they have "collections" that coordinate. I have never been unhappy with any purchase from them. They always send plenty of fabric. If I order 2 yards I get just a little over and almost never have much, if any, trimming to do. They guarantee all purchases, even after the fabric has been cut. No, I don't work for them...lol. I am just really happy with their products and their service. I never have to wait long, usually within a week or less. Their prices are great, too.
