If you live in the Northeast have you been to Marden’s ???

I live about 1 1/2 hrs away from the Sanford store and go there 2-3 times a year. If you're looking for something specific, it's hit or miss. I usually go for backings - at 2.99 or 3.99 a yard, you can't go wrong! They are generous with their cutting and have given discounts on fabric used for project Linus and for guilds if you have 5 or more people.

I live about 20 miles from the Waterville Marden's. I have a sewing room and my closet and the floor of my closet is filled with fabric. I would guess about 85% if it is from Marden's in Waterville.
I love love love Marden's. Quality fabric.
I was very happy to read that there are a lot of Maine quilters on The Quilter's Message Board!!!

I don't know if they still do - but they used to be VERY generous when they cut the fabric. I was very spoiled and when I moved back to NJ, it was tough to get used to Joann's giving you no more than one extra thread when they cut their material. I'm heading back up to Ogunquit in July and plan to make Marden's one of my stops!

I LOVE MARDEN'S.!!! GO MOSTLY TO THE ONE IN WATERVILLE. HAVE BEEN TO THE ELLSWORTH AND AUBURN AND SCARBORO ONES AND ALL ARE GREAT!!!!! Can't beat their prices. They have good yarn prices also. ALTHOUGH I WAS AT THE YARD GOODS CENTER IN WATERVILLE, QUILT SHOP TODAY AND THEY HAD SOME REALLY GOOD SALES ON FABRICS FOR THE SHOP HOP. SOME ON THE SALE BIN OUTSIDE WERE 3.59 A YD AND INSIDE THEY HAD A GOOD SELECTION OF 5.98-7.98.
