It sure would be nice to have prices of EVERYTHING go down ... food, gas, all of our basic needs. These highr prices are HHARD on the checkbook. Leaves alot less for fabric at any price. Here in WA. where I go for fabric a yard is at least 10.00 a yd. I feel lucky to find anythng below 8.00 and thats product the shop owners are wanting to get rid of to make room for new goods. FATS are 3.25 in most of the LQSHOPS. Did anyone mention our chice of hobby/ habit is no a cheap hobby???? ( neither is owning a cabin, snow sking, etc.!!!)
