Question about fabric.
#1
I know how good a fabric is by the feel of it, but as for the high line of fabrics I have no idea. I have found this wonderful little shop about 40 minutes from me that has RJR, Jenny Beyer, Thimbleberries, Aunt Grace, Blue Hill, Civil War, Batiks fabric for just $5.00 a yard. They say that it is first quality. How would I know if this is first quality and is this a good deal? Thanks for any info.

well, you said you can tell good fabric by feeling it...so feel it. there is a little shop up north here that sells all of their fabric for $6 a yard... including the very same batiks my lqs sells for $10.50 a yard. I don't get there often but boy...when i do i stock up! :)i asked the lady how she could afford to sell her fabrics so cheap? she said her hubby told her she did not have to make money, she just couldn't spend any...she had to make enough to buy what she wanted.
