I buy full bolts of muslin and cotton prints when I'm making a dress. Normally I only buy it if it's on sale or with a coupon.

I will if the price is good and it is something I will use a lot.

I only buy quality muslin and Warm and Natural by the bolt and only with 50% off coupon or 50% off sale; no regrets - ever!

I also have a full bolt of pellon, I back my redwork with it. I always buy W & N by the bolt when on sale.

I buy whole bolts of white muslin to dye...and I look for the 50% coupon as well!

Yup, full bolts of Kona solids (Hancock's of Paducah) and Moda marbles (Craft Connection), both at 'quantity discount' rates. I'm also negotiating with my LQS for a discount bolt rate on WonderUnder 805 fusible web.

I buy full bolts of Kona cotton Rich Red because I make Kung Fu sashes for my son's school. Those darn things are 3 1/2 yrds long! I too take my Joanns coupon!!!

I bought a bolt of Kona Cotton online at a place that only sells by the bolt. Can't think of the name of it right now. Great price.

I was going to do a Dear Jane with it but decided to do something else, so far working on one quilt with it.

I'm lucky if I can buy a full yard! lol But I can dream!

I buy full bolts of all of my backings, like Pellon Fleece, fusible webs, and if there is a fabric I'm in love with and there is a full unopened bolt out at Joann's I will use a 50% off coupon and buy it. I keep a solid white, solid black and solid flesh colored bolt on hand at all times. So Yes! I buy bolts.
