My only quilt shop charges between 12-14.00 US for their fabrics...always the newest on the market. So the price you noted was pretty much the going rate in this area. Now, Walmart and Joann's have some at 5-9.00 a yard...but it's hit and miss, and usually not the newest on the market...sometimes, it's last years designs.
Your local quilt shops also provide a lot more service (mine does) than the big box stores.

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!
