Nowadays, I buy fabric at Hancock's in No. Little Rock. On clearance table I have found fabric @ $1.59/yd, $1.99/yd and once bought some civil war fabric for $.89/yd....these were all high quality fabrics. I don't shop too often maybe once a month, but usually find a bargain.....don't go to quilt shops anymore. At a show a quilt shop owner said it is the freight that causes them to mark their products up so much.
