Check up on Good Will and other used clothing stores for shirts, skirts or dresses that you could cut up for scraps...and yard sales, where blue jeans are on sale....who says you have to buy new fabric??? Quilts are scrappy, made from what is available in your area...ask others who quilt in your area, and you may find your bins overflowing. I am surprise that this group has not PMed you yet, offering up their scraps....get creative! When there is a strong desire, you will find a way. Think outside the box...where o where are the scrapes hiding??? Bedspreads, etc., can be cut down for scraps, used curtains, and the list goes on.
