I'm not sure if other LQS are this expensive, or just this one. I was at another LQS that's further away a couple weeks ago and I don't recall seeing prices quite that high, though there were many $12-13/yd bolts. I love to support the locals but it's cheaper for me to buy fabric online, even at $10.75/yd when shipping is free. Considering the number of yards it takes to make a quilt, I end up buying a good bit of fabric online.
