This is for maybe starting to sell some to 2 of my friends that have businesses and want some quilts and blankets.
I am shopping at MSCO and though I would like to go to JoAnn's too, MSCO has some good prices on yardage, most less than $10 on name brand so I just can't bring myself to go to JoAnn's and spend almost the same on a little lower quaility. What would you do? |

Sorry about that, slip of my finger on the computer. I meant to say the quality of the fabric is poor. lol

BUDGET? What's a budget? And especially when it comes to my quilting - my dh knows better than to set limits on my quilting addiction!! LOL!! I don't set any limits on his tools and toys!

Not a strict budget, we just discuss purchases over $100 before we buy. And thanks sandybeach for the link, I will check it out.

decisions...decisions ... as bad as choices!! LOL Quality is a good thing when selling items ...
|
Little Bit (aka DD) is at the grandparents' for the weekend so I might head to the LQS today to see what they have.
|
At least you know what you're going to make from the fabric! My stash is full of 'I just love the fabric' fabric...no idea what I'm going to make from it!!! Have fun shopping!!!

I'd go for quality since you are going to be selling

What would you do? What would I do? Me? I'd buy what I needed (or wanted badly) and let hubby eat canned chicken noodle soup for one meal a week. |
I love thousandofbolts. Have only had one experience where the wrong fabric was sent, but they let me keep it and sent the right one to me. If you know the name of the company, you know the fabric is good quality, at least that is what I have always gone by. Thousands doesn't have the newest lines but their prices are fabulous!!Have fun.
