If you contact the quilt guild they may suggest a shop or a group which cn help.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts and ideas. I didn't know most of your fabric comes from the States, making it as expensive as it is here in Canada. The V&A is on my list of things to do while I am there. I have been there before but did not see the textile exhibits. I'll be sure to see it this time!
