Thank you for the web site. I found a fabric I had been looking for. Only one place had it so I am happy I found it.

thank you for the tip and the website. it is sad to see the difference in the exact same fabric but i have seen it here at 2 of my lqs one had the fabric for $4.50/yrd and the other charged $9.50/yrd for the same fabric

Love that website! Thanks for sharing!

This is a great help. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you! I will use it also in the future.

YEA!!! I'd been looking online, unsuccessfully, for shops carrying P & B Textiles recent series "Nellie's Garden, but within 10 seconds of using your link I found there are three shops and one of them has the fabric on sale. I can't believe it was so easy! Thanks so much.

Got both the flame and the onyx for borders on the wolf. Now I can finish that sucker!

I am glad you were able to find your fabric. God bless.

So I went into the Fabric Shop place that has over 200 stores under it's umbrella. At the search, I typed in what I was looking for, exactly what I was looking for. within 15 seconds the screen belongs to ME. The only thing that comes up is the exact fabric I'm looking for only and the name of the shops. I went through all of the ones that carried the most of the fabric line. Then wrote the name of the shop and the PRICE of the fabric. I found about 12 shops before I called it a night that the pricing for the exact same fabric ran from $6.75 a yard up to $10.49 a yard. I use this particular website most of the time and I have a much better chance of being able to pay what I want as much as $3.00 a yard less... Works for me!!!!

Been using quiltshops.com for nearly ten years as fabric in Australia is usually $20+ a metre. There is also 'thousands of bolts' and there are some excellent sellers on ebay, you can get multiple yardage pieces for really good prices (take a peek at ockylocky for one - there are others) eg 2 yards for less than what we pay per metre here. Enjoy. CB
