I only buy top quality fabric but I buy it for cheap....that means I have to resist buying all the new fabric that comes out. I am patient though and there is always a great sale on the internet somewhere. I do most of my fabric shopping on line anyway because I live in a remote area.

that sounds like a good reason to buy more fabric, don't you think????

Can't wait for your online store to be up and running. I currently order online from the States where my purchases (including shipping) are much lower than what I would find here in Canada. I hope you compete price-wise, because I do shop Canadaian as muich as possible when the price is comparative.

Good luck on your venture!!!

Quilt shop, high quality fabric is $9.75 - $10.25 a yard. Batik is $10.25 - 12.00. I don't want to think about it.

I never pay more than 2.50 a yard, otherwise I would wouldn't be able to afford to quilt. And honestly, because I hit sales, and use coupons, I get some nice quality fabric.
