The newer fabrics I have seen are around $10.50 per yard now here in Northern California.

I consider myself lucky - my closest lqs has fabrics at $7.95 a yard - even batiks. Another sells short ends for $2.95 a yard - I'm a scrappy quilter so I love that. My favorite reasonable place is crows nest quilting fabrics on Ebay - Dawn has wonderful prices and good fabric. And Thousands of bolts is another great place with great prices. I keep hearing prices on cotton will really go up, so I am stocking up. I've spent a lot of money on fabric recently - love it!

I have to go buy 6 yds of white so I can start a "V" square---think I might look for some good quality all cotton sheets. Cannot be any higher priced.

A couple of shops here sell fabric for $6.50 a yard for Moda, Thimbleberries, and other name brand fabric, including Batiks. However the selection is limited. Another shop sells close to that price and I bought civil war fabric for under $5 not on sale. :-)

Mine is about 8.75

It's $9.50 at one store I was in recently - southwest CO

$8-11 in Montana...I also heard the price of cotton has really gone up, so the cost of fabric should be rising!

Today was the day to choose colors and materials for another quilt. I was at Walmart and chose rose, gray and black. For 9 yards of material I paid a little over $30. I'm sure I bought more than I need but would rather have left over than run out and go back and all is gone. The new quilt patter is called "Ribbons".

Wow. Sure makes your hobby expensive, doesn't it? If I could I'd order it for you then send it to you! :-) But then how much is postage? :-( Sure hope you can find nice fabric on sale!

At my on-line shop our prices are from $7 to $9.50 per yard and we do ship to Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the UK.

The next shipment of incoming fabric..that coming in next week will be 10.30 per yard.

Most of the batiks are between $7 and $8.50 per yard.
