I guess I need to make a road trip to MN. My new favorite shop is Yardwork Fabrics in Fall Creek Wi. She goes to Markets and buys fabric that is 1 to 2 years old. So she is able to sell everything for under $6 a yard. Most of it is $3.75 a yd. So if you aren't looking for the latest but want some really nice fabric for a nice price, this is where I go. They are very friendly and willing to help out. They are all either teachers or retired teachers. I have seen fabric at this shop that is at the $9 a yd stores.
