Fat Quarters
 

What do you pay for fat quarters at your local quilt shop? Ours are at $3.00 right now. Is that high or low or average?

That’s what most are at my LQS- sometimes they have a 2 for 1 sale which is nice.

Yup, the average price for fabric has gone up a lot and I usually buy lots of fat quarter bundles. Now I really stop, do the math and opt for purchasing 1/2 yards. Our hobby is not cheap!

All the fabric if not on sale at four of the local quilt shops are $10.99 - $11.99 a yard. The fat quarters are $3. I seldom buy fabric from the local shops anymore. I do buy notions and patterns, those are about the same as online and it saves delivery time and most time shipping charges.

Yes, our FQs are about $3.00 each now at the LQS. I buy almost everything online and get wonderful sales.

Yes, but if you buy 12 you get on free at my lqs.

It's the same price here.

Thank you for all of your replies.

We are lucky here.... We have one LQS that is much more reasonable. FQs right now are $2.00, but buy 20 for $20.00. I bought 40 because they will go up I'm sure.

3.00 sounds about right to me too. Doing the math you may pay a bit more but sometimes I like to get them rather than yardage so it's worth the extra money to me.
