I think that there has been so many "reproduction" fabrics on the market recently, that shop owners/retailers get confused of the time lines involved.
I wasn't talking to the Ladies in the store, so the only confusion was self-induced! You see I've never paid any attention to fabric lines, designers, and selvedge edges etc. til I came to the QB ... and I obviously didn't pay enough attention to this one! I know for sure it wasn't Rocky Mountain ... as with our Rockies it would have rung a bell in my pea brain for sure!!
What did stick was Wyndham Fabrics , as we have a Wyndham Street here.
Of course, if I'd only done a few googles (too obvious, I guess!
) ........ so I guess Wyndham was really W

And looks like the stuff probably was the real Cat's Meowwwwww
Curious?? ... what would you normally pay for the fabric?
Most here is about $16 (per metre, not yard) and in Menno shops, maybe $13-$14 .... but when you see $7.99 ... you suspect it is a "cheap" fabric (or it's been hugely marked down). And I think that's why I didn't pay much attention as I know this store often has super cheap flimsy cottons that I don't want ... and not so much LQS quality.
**mumbles to self**
**not that I need more fabric!**
Should I check it out when I next pass by?
