Don't hold your breath. Remember beef prices. Prices paid to ranchers are in the gutter over the pink slime situation. The ranchers are the ones being hurt by people boycotting beef. It never seems to affect the price at the grocery store for steak. The fabric industry will blame something else. Remember, 90- 95% of fabric is made overseas. It shouldn't cost what it does. At the LQS, the new Moda is about $12.00 per yard. Every time it comes in, the price goes up. Don't you wish we could raise the price of quilts. People around here don't like to pay over $50-$60 for quilts at the local auction. I bought a lovely, hand embroidered, cross stitch quilt, completely finished for $30. Try that on $12. per yard fabric.
