I primarily make lap quilts to donate to a local nursing home so $13/yard isn't in my budget. I am working on a bargello for myself and did pay $10-$12/yard for a few fabrics (needed 20 different fabrics) but I only needed1/2 yard. I usually shop our local Ben Franklin Crafts store. They always have tables of nice fabrics for $3.99, $5.99 and $7.99 a yard (flat folds). Their bolt fabrics run $10 and up. Also, Hancock Fabrics runs a 30%-50% sale frequently plus add'l coupons almost weekly. I've found Moda and Robert Kaufman fabrics at BF for $3.99 before. As much as I would like to support LQS's, it isn't practical for what I do.
