In CA., quilt store fabrics start at a minimum of $13.99 and up. The fabric store where I've been teaching for 3 years, their quilt shop quality fabrics are $11.99, but she has a lot of cotton fabrics, starting at $4.99, even though it's not "quilt shop quality" fabrics, they are very nice fabrics, UNFORTUNATELY, the owner doesn't have any interest in the store, has decided to close the doors.
