I have noticed quilt shops doing that too - selling in 1/2 yard or 1/3 yard cuts

The same thing happened to me so now, like you, I really pay attention.

So great to be part of a group who shares tips and reminders, as well as all the encouragement! Thanks.

A few years ago I got so excited when I thought I had found a good deal at an online shop .... it took several "add to the carts " clicks before I caught on it was priced by the 1/2 yard. I quickly ended my shopping. I am soo much more aware now to look at how the fabric is priced then ever.
I will admit I came very close to the check -out and payment , without ever realizing I was not going to be getting full yards. I am not a fan at all of pricing that is less than full yard pricing. |

I agree... and I think we quilters better load up on our cotton fabrics now, while we still can. With the price of oil and fuels going up it will increase the cost of farm produced stuff. We're facing a "brave new world" now.

It's happened to me before too, have to be so careful!
