A pity you in UK can't get to Aberkan in N Wales which is a fabric/wool/haberdashery warehouse ,they do have other shops in other areas but not as large, the quilt fabric is sold both by the yard [£2.99---4.99] and pieces sold by the weight at £14.25 kg -xmas£22.25 kg which is SO much cheaper than quilt shops, go yrly and got backing for 3 quilt tops 44"x 68" ish for £17.50 and wadding cheaper too.
