I think there's less than 20 shops in the whole of Scotland - only one in my town. At the current exchange rate, fabric is around $22 a metre and FQs are about $5-6 each. Notions are about double too. I think Australia has similar prices with Europe. My LQS has a sale on 6th January, so fabric should be reduced to $13-15. I'll be stocking up on a few things for the swap then
