I had sticker shock also. I was in San Francisco last weekend and thought I would take a look at one of the downtown fabric stores for cotton velveteen. They had many beautiful colours BUT they ranged from $29 to 70.00 a yard. I just needed a bit so got 3 pieces of 1/4 yard and spent 26.00...............gasp

The New Zealand prices range from around $28 to $34 per metre... fat quarters that I buy are $7.50.... I won't pay any more than that for them...

Ladies, I was just looking at a cotton line of solid fabrics advertising both grown and made in the USA. It says it's sold in the Annie's Catalog.

My stash is now the most valuable part of my portfolio, great percentage growth. I guess it's just like buying commodities....cotton futures....
I restrict myself to $5.00 yard fabric and find great pieces at the thrift store where some people have taken their leftovers from projects including yardage.
