Default Monthly Fat Quarter clubs

Do any of you have any suggestions for Clubs that send bundles of fat quarters every month that are reasonable priced? I currently belong to the one from Quilt in a Day. They send me 8 fat quarters a month for $19.99. I think shipping is free. I've been a member since July so I've gotten 8 deliveries and I have to say I've liked most of them. There's only been a few fabrics that weren't exactly something I wouldn't have chosen for myself.

TIA

Pamela

I make my own fat quarters, it's a lot cheaper.

I realize it's cheaper to make my own. But for me the point of belonging to a club like this is to enhance my stash with fabric I may not necessarily pick out for myself, not just to have fat quarters. I also like getting the fabric every month, it's like getting a present/surprise every month.

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply....

Hmmm, 7 for almost $21 ? That is $3.00 each and seems to be quite expensive.

If I’m going to pay for fabric I want to pick it out myself!

I do the sew sampler and quilters candy box. They often send fat quarters but also send precuts some of the time. If your not familiar with what they are you might want to check them out.

She said 8 for 19.99, so that’s 2.50 each. Not bad, but not a bargain.

I’m not a club member, either, and rarely buy fat quarters (I prefer buying samoles in 1/3 yd increments). But I can certainly understand the appeal of getting a fabric surprise and building a variety. Whenever I’ve been given fabric I didn’t choose, 9 times out of 10 I like it.

I have tried these clubs twice, and concluded it is a way for the shops to get rid of fabrics that haven't sold well (just my impression).
