No, on retirement I cannot afford fabric at $12 to $15 per yard. I understand the 'why' of it, but we have enough problems with budget without adding that one. I do get emails from several fabric places so I can be informed when they have excellent sales at $3. to $6 per yard. And since a local quilt fabric store went out of business, I made like 5 trips and stocked up my stash that way at 75%off the fabric. Sew now time to complete and make new quilts!
