ebay has good deals on fat quarters, but 20.00 a fat quarter is a little much. put them back on your shelf.

i think i see her oop kaffe fabric listings on ebay. it looks like she is creating her own price market.

this seller has been getting upwards of $15.00 for fq's. yep seller is creating their own price market and there are those who are supporting it.

I found this listing, sort of amazed at the price and amount of fabric, maybe I shouldn't be, but thought I'd share!

At that price, she'll be holding on for some time. She is asking for the MOON, but it is always nice to have a DREAM!

What people often don't get is that CL, being local, is not the same as eBay, where you might be bidding competitively with people all around the planet. If she wants an eBay price, she's not likely to get it on CL, or it would be much more a matter of chance.

Also, if she's willing to sell them individually, she might have a chance with a few of them, but only if she showed a clear picture of each one.

I saw that ad, too - in the Minneapolis, Minnesota Craigs List.

I was pretty excited about it - until I saw $20/yard.

Maybe she bought it all outside the USA - from what I understand, $20/yard is not all that unreasonable in some places
