I've ordered the extra wide backing from Marshalls many times. I was ordering one at a time "just as I needed it" and was paying about $10. for shipping. Then I decided to get smart about the shipping so I now order 5 different colors at a time and I'm paying abut $12.00 for shipping all of them together. I don't mind having extra ones on hand as I make a LOT of quilts and quilt them myself. I've had no problem at all except how they are wrapped on a bolt and yes I have had that same problem when buying from my local quilt shop. She will not order anything of color in the wide backings, just white and cream and I get tired of that so I went to Marshalls and love them.
