I shop by color not by design. I buy 80% of my fabrics at a fabric distributor warehouse. My guild members and I buy bolts and swap yardage from each bolt. It's usually about $2.95 a yard by the bolt. $1.95 a yard if we buy flat folds.
WOW, how in the world does one get to buy fabric at a distributor warehouse?? Seriously, is there a trick or membership or something within reach for the common girl? I'll wear a pumpkin on my head for prices like that! Where do you live, where do you buy, would you like to adopt me?? hehe giggle
