Never Mind Fabric ....Have You Priced Quilt Notions Lately?
#21
My opinion is not only is everything we use getting more expensive, but since the manufacters of fabric and notions know we love it and have to have it, they can make more money from us by raising the prices. I've noticed it too. I can't afford the good fabric any more. Have to buy online or use coupons at JOANN's and I've also noticed the affordable stuff must have a thread count of 100 because you can see right through it.
Sorry, I just had to vent !!

I get my replacement blades from jhittle, http://www.jhittlesewing.com. They have some terrific prices on the things we all need and they have weekly specials.

I also bought my blades with ebay and saved a ton considering what they cost in the shops. But a gf just found a thing in the carpet area of home improvement stores that are the same sized blades for even less money. I still think that some of the best sewing and quilting notions are in our local hardware stores.
