That is a great deal for warm n natural.
Thanks for the heads up! |
Thanks for letting us know!

If you can save, then spare the extra money....order it by the bolt. Last time I ordered by the bolt, it came out to a little less than $3/yd and had free shipping.

I'm curious - how many yards would be on a bolt?
|
That depends on the manufacturer and fabric. Could be as little as 8 or 9 and as much as 14 or 15. Kinda seems crazy; would be nice if the industry was consistent. Just like the width of fabric. Sometimes you get only 42" of usable fabric and sometimes 44" or somewhere inbetween! Good thing quilters are flexible and can learn to deal with it. :)

I bluyl material from all over. When I first started quilting, the only place I had to buy was wall-mart. That was 13 years ago, and the quilts have been used, and are still holding up. Yes, I have had to make some repairs, but just because of all the washing and using. I am careful, at wall-mart, but you can get good material, you just have to check it out. You don't have as big a choice there though. I have ordered on line, and liked what i got, and I have bought lots from LQS and liked it also, so there is no right or wrong answer.

Local Quilt Shop
vs WalMart, Ben Franklin, JoAnn, Hobby Lobby, etc. |
did my first shop hop in Sonoma County, CA. Big mistake. Have to find room for new fabric that I HAD TO HAVE. What fun that was.

curious.... how much fabric do you have??
|
how much fabric do you have, and do you still buy more.....even if not on sale....???
|
I refuse to answer on grounds that the answer WILL incriminate me -
I've slowed down a LOT from what I was doing several years ago - But that would roughly equate into a five-pack a day smoker down to a pack a week |
Well since I work at LQS...I have been accumulating more....trying to use all my scraps and have been sending cuts from "old" stash to people who need it..although wondering if I should get rid of all my wal-mart fabric. I only use that for kids crafts and what not...to make room for "new" stash. I am currently trying to think how I will organize stash for future projects?? whether i do it by size...color...keep scraps from certain projects together for future use? cut it all into certain sizes? or just keep putting them all in a bin and then take the time every year to just clean it out with scrappy projects?
.... so to answer your question my stash is medium size.....I am trying to downsize.....but don't ask about scrapbooking stuff....i think i am addicted to buying. |
