My LQS had block of the month yesterday and someone brought in 2 quilts she had backed with fabric from Benartex that was pre-printed for quilting. Maybe this has already been posted here as I don't think it's something new, although the LQS owner didn't know about it.

It's available at http://fabric.com. I looked, it's about $14/yd. I am so tired of marking my quilts and I have such a backlog of tops to finish up - I may bite the bullet. I will easily get the free shipping!

Considering how expensive it is to have a quilt quilted, this isn't to bad of a price. I may have to try some on my next quilt. Thanks for the link

I'm new to the quilting part of quilting. What exactly is this?

Lady Tapioca 09-12-2010 03:01 PM

At 108" wide, it seems really reasonably priced

MommaDorian 09-12-2010 03:03 PM

Still not exactly sure what this is, but Fabric.com has it listed on Amazon.com for $7.98 a yard.

The free motion quilting pattern is printed on this backing fabric. That means you quilt it with the back of the quilt facing up and you don't have to mark (I fmq but I have to mark everything!).

Amma,thanks for the link! I had the worst time trying to find it!! :D
I agree with the poster who said it's cheaper than sending out to a LAQ- I'm going to get some! :D

PS. Just got 8 yards of it on Amazon for 7.98 per yard and free shipping!!!!!!!!!!! :D

You must just be lucky! I just checked on Amazon through Fabric.com and it is 14.98 per yard! :-(

hobo2000 09-13-2010 02:43 PM

you all are better sleuths than I, I still can't find it. I finally found it but it is 14.98 a yard. where did you find it for 7.98 a yd.

featherweight 09-13-2010 03:01 PM

I went to amazon.com and put Benartex quilt backing, and it came up in beigh color and I paid 7.98 a yard, free shipping. Hope you find it.

featherweight 09-13-2010 03:05 PM

I just went back on Amazon and it did go up to 14.98 a yard. I bought mine this morning for 7.98 and another poster paid 7.98 also. I'm sorry. :(

When I clicked on my link it took me to something called 108'' Dream Line Quilting Fabric Beige By The Yard. It's not 7.98 anymore, it's back up to 14.98. Phoey.

krisgray 09-13-2010 03:50 PM

That $7.98 price on Amazon must have been someone's mistake that went undetected, until we all started buying it.

madamekelly 09-13-2010 04:54 PM

Found it. Dufus alert over! Thank you.

Good to hear. lol Glad you found it.

Dee 09-13-2010 08:16 PM

Thanks for sharing. Thats wonderful, as I am fearful of doing my own quilting.

sueisallaboutquilts 09-14-2010 04:44 AM

R U serious?? I just ordered some the night before last.
Let me check also.

sueisallaboutquilts 09-14-2010 04:49 AM

I just checked and it's not 7.98 anymore. That's strange. :(

galvestonangel 09-14-2010 08:19 PM

They must have caught the mistake becasue it is now $14.98
We should have been quicker. Even at the higher proce. ot's not bad since it is so wide. I buy 2+ yards and turn my quilts sideways and get two large lap quilts of of that

sculpyfan 09-23-2010 12:12 PM

I went to Amazon.com but it seemed that the material was wide but not described as having printing on it. Are we to assume it is that way. There was some batik by Benartex that I am sure isn't printed. Clarification for the feeble minded please.

sculpyfan 09-23-2010 12:20 PM

It must be like the rotary blades and and back supports,when quilters start buying it makes a big inpact.

krisgray 09-23-2010 02:11 PM

It's benartex dreamline quilting fabric and the "product description," scroll down the page, says it is printed with a feathered design. Just follow the link a few messages above and it will take you right to the product.

mama's place 07-30-2011 04:40 AM

I've spent the last hour...not really that long...searching for this product and they...the quilt store owners, marketers, etc.....need to make this easier to find. You can't purchase what you can't find to order!!! Had to come back here to locate the exact name of the fabric backing. Thanks again QB members.
