It is only logical that fat quarters would be getting expensive as the price of fabric is skyrocketing. I saw some new seasonal fabric groupings at a local shop today that was $16.95/yd. It was not digitally printed. It was beautiful and even tempting, but way too rich for my wallet. This shop always has fat quarters cut and available when new collections first come in, but they are usually priced twenty-five to fifty cents higher than a 1/4 yard price would be making them rather pricey.
