Being disabled, and with very limited income, I have found yard sales to be a real bonanaza for finding fabrics. Not only do you find actual fabric stashes from time to time, but if you are open to taking apart clothing items, it is amazing what you can get for a quarter sometimes.While the clothing may be out of style, the fabrics used are timeless. A seam ripper, and willingness to dismantle things can provide you with some great materials for very little cost.
