I weighed some new fabric I just purchased (unwashed) and a yard weighed between 5.6 and 6 ounces. 3 yards weighed a little over 1 pound. So assuming 3 yards per pound, anything under $10 per pound (=$3.33 per yard) would be a bargain for quality quilt fabric. I bet they sell it for less than that too. Many garage sales sell it for less than $5 a pound.
