Hi Guys,

Just a quick rundown for you from my perspective....

Cheapest fabric over here equates to approx $20.00 per meter
We receive notions way later than you do and at approximately double the price.
Wadding is so much more over here and we don't have any stores like Joanns that do 40% or 50% off coupons
Thread is very expensive King Tut is £7.00 (minimum) a small reel.

You are all just so lucky over there! To have a posing angel who could post items to us (all expenses paid of course) would be a great thing for us quilters..... especially if they are good at folding fabric as I am told you can get 6 - 8 yards in a flat rate envelope!!!

Oh I have to say that I do have subscriptions to three of McCalls publications but they do it at a reasonable rate.

Hugs to all
