That is definitely expensive. Couldn't afford that now, but I remember paying $59 a yard for this beautiful tapestry fabric for my boat cushions back in 1992. I absolutely loved that fabric and enjoyed seeing it every day.

oh my! I was looking for "romantic or French words" fabric and this is what I found. If you don't want to go to the link, it's $204.00 a yard. You read that right.

In 1989 I paid a pretty good price for some fabric for my DD's wedding dress-------up around $30 a yard if I recall-----------but all in all, not a bad price for a wedding dress. I think it ended up costing around $150 when I was done.

thinking about this i started thinking about costs...i do have a skirt that is probably 1 1/2 yards of fabric- it cost $389 (and no --- i didn't buy it- my mother did- but i wear it.
i also have a jacket that may have 2 1/2-3 yards of fabric the jacket cost over $500...so i guess that i have spent alot for a yard of fabric
as for yardage- i think the most i have spent on any yardage was around $60 a yard- it was a fabulous wool!
