Need bolt of white but can't find it
 
Can someone direct me to a place that may have it?
Marshall's Dry Goods has "Dream Cotton" and I don't know what brand that is. However, they don't have white.
I like Kona or Bella.

Didn't come up with all that much in terms of good buys but I did have a fun search. BTW. I prefer Kona "Snow" to "White", Joann.com says that is an 8 yard bolt and I think you can order whole bolts easily at the store but didn't find it so easily on line.

Found some different options on Amazon, different sizes of bolts and wildly different prices -- the joy of internet shopping!

Have you tried Hancocks in Paducah?

tallchick 07-30-2021 06:18 AM

Hancocks of Paducah often has buy “more save more” a bolt is usually 15 yards at most places. Just bought a bolt of Batik neutral.
Joann’s has coupons right now and if you like Kona, you can get a good deal on a bolt and usually with free shipping or curbside pickup if the store has enough stock on hand.
Green Fairy has a great price on Bella solids, if they don't have it they will order it for you.

Dream Cotton is a Marshall's brand, MDG. The rep told me it was made the same way as Moda Bella at the same plant. I am going to Marshall's Wed. I was hoping to get a bolt of white Dream Cotton I opened my last bolt of white a few weeks ago. If not available I will get the wide Dream Cotton on the bolt. I want a bolt of red and black too. The red does not bleed.

Green Fairy Quilts sells bolts of Moda Bella for great sale prices. Yardage/bolt sales are about once a month. The most recent ended a few days ago. I think sale price on bolts was $88- with free shipping. Get on their email list and get notices of all their sales. Judi and Clint are very nice and helpful folks.

SusieQOH, I have a bolt of white that I'm happy to get rid of. It is from Marshall's. It's nice, but I already have plenty of white fabrics. Just PM me and I'll give you the details.

I have purchased Northcott solids bolts from fabrics.com and fabrichut.com. It is not sold on the bolt but if you order a bolt amount, you will get the entire bolt.

Dream Cotton is $2.55 a yard for a 25 yard bolt. I haven't had a problem with this brand in any of my quilts and most are utility quilts that are used and washed a lot. . Marshall's sells all major fabric brands along with their brand. The warehouse retail side has so much more then what is on the website. There are $1 a yard fabric bins, fabric sold in six yards no cutting, lots of notions, ribbons, zippers, and an area for knits and fancy clothes fabric.

Thanks to everyone!
Onebyone- I see that they have Dream cotton in white for 4.95 BUT it's 108 inches!! That's a great deal.

Irishrose2 07-31-2021 11:42 AM

The only white I would order a bolt of is Northcutt Colorworks - pricey, but I don't use a lot of white. I had to use Kona black and a white when the LQS was closed and I wasn't impressed. I don't use a lot of either, so for me it's worth it.

I bought a bolt of black fabric from Hancocks last month. It was $6.75 a yard, full bolt is 15 yards. It is Kona fabric. They had white, red, grey and black. We were passing through town and stopped by., they had plenty out, same fabric they has on the floor.

Onebyone 08-01-2021 10:08 AM

Marshall's had Kaffe Fasset and Tula Pink the last time I was there in the flat fold six yard cuts $6 a yard. I want it all when I shop there. LOL I'll be honest and say I haven't met one of the reps that quilt or knows much about quilting. When someone gushes over Tula Pink fabric they don't get it. It's all fabric to them. The retail side employees seem to know more about quilting as quilters are the majority of the customers.

Teen 08-01-2021 04:08 PM

Not sure if you located what you need, Suz…but Hobby Lobby sells bolts of Kona. It’s the only fabric I buy from them…

Onebyone 08-04-2021 04:08 PM

Went to Marshall's today. I found Dream Cotton in 9 yard bolts. $2.22 a yard per bolt. I got white, black, and gray. Also new Riley Blake fabric was being put on shelves for $4.99 a yard retail. Robert Kauffman's older lines were marked down to $4.99 a yard. Same stuff still in quilt shops here for $10.99 a yard. Same with Michael Miller and Andover The new lines were $5.99 a yard. I found 8 yards of nice cotton fabric from Connecting Threads for $1 yard. It had a flaw next to the selvage. I had to make myself stop shopping. LOL

SusieQOH 08-05-2021 05:09 AM

I ended up buying yardage at a good price for Bella and Kona. I hesitate to buy a bolt of a brand I'm not familiar with. Maybe I'll buy some yardage of Dream sometime.

Onebyone 08-05-2021 05:59 AM

Like I said the reps don't know much about quilting only see fabric/numbers. When I asked the rep if there was any chance of Marshall's selling Moda, he answered he didnt know but Moda makes the Dream Cotton for us.

Onebyone 08-05-2021 06:12 AM

Riley Blake and Robert Kauffman has some nice solids too. They were $4.99 a yard at Marshall's retail side in store.

DrosieD 08-08-2021 08:06 PM

If you're still looking for a bolt of white fabric, unless it's a specific brand, manufacturer, try Fabric.com. The more you buy the cheaper it is. I've had good luck with their fabric Give them a try.

SusieQOH 08-09-2021 05:53 AM

Thanks, DrosieD!

Just note that should you need a refund, Green Fairy makes you pay the original shipping costs plus the return shipping costs, which can make it not cost effective to do a return with them, especially on an entire bolt.

A guild member told the guild about Green Fairy. Her order was damaged and she would had to pay postage both ways to return it for a refund for order only no refund for shipping. Too many other online shops to buy from with excellent customer service.

Jo-Ann Fabrics has Robert Kaufman Kona Cotton and if you wait for a good coupon you can get it by the bolt at a good price. I keep white and snow on hand from them. I use a lot of both and like to use a brand that I can reasonably access locally for those little fabric emergencies. You know, when you didn’t actually measure what you have on hand instead just eyeballing the bolt and thinking “oh, that is plenty to finish this next quilt!”

You would think I would learn, wouldn’t you? :)

SusieQOH 09-15-2021 05:39 AM

Thank you, Leanne, I didn't know that.

Marshall Dry Goods has 108" Dream Cotton 15 yard bolts in white for $74.25:

Thanks, Bonnie. That's a great deal!

Kwiltr 09-16-2021 08:12 AM

Green Fairy Quits used to sell any colour of Bella solids you ordered by the bolt and their pricing was quiltgood I thought.
