My sister has had a lot of yard sales and she has a couple friends who are seamstresses/crafters not quilters. When they get together they sell the fabric by the pound. They put it into bags (stuffed and they help stuff) and move those bags like no body's business. If they want to get things moving on the last day, they drop everything 50% and up. They also do $1.00 bags. If you can get everything into a bag and still close the bag, it's a dollar.

*** Prices should be no more than $1.00 (preferably 50 cents) a yard.
*** Make each piece with yardage and price (DO NOT CUT).
*** I buy fabric when I can find it.

Why else would one have a garage sale???????

If you want to get "decent/better" prices for your fabric, e-bay or etsy or sewitsforsale might be better ways to go than a garage sale.

For " regular" quilting cotton fabric, 42-45 inches wide, figure 3.5 to 4.5 yards of fabic per pound.

Cricket: If you go the Resources section at the top of the page and scan down until you find the trade or sell section and click on it. You should be right there.

I went to an estate sale the other day and they were selling fabric for $3 a lb. It was high end fabric. I got lots of beautiful batik. My bill was $89.
