On sales, at Fabric Depot in Portland, Oregon, on a whole bolt; when you go over a certain amount the shipping is free. Also with Fabric warehouse and Quilt Plus, Indiana...Fabric Shack also has some great deals. I have ordered from each one with great satisfaction ...each has checked and re-checked with me so know what I am getting and when. I have broken my promise to myself not to back order with these businesses. At least, this has been my experience with them.
