The people who own the shop that prices by the half yard sound like nice people. Thanks for responding so non-defensively.
I'm in Canada. We have always paid a good price for our quilt fabrics, my LQS brought in some new batiks that are to die for untill you see the price tag. A good quilt fabric here can cost between 14-16 per yard. As you can probably guess, i do most of my quilt shopping online, really snap it up when our dollar is at part or higher than the US dollar.
Im in Australia, and we pay up to $25 a yard on most cotton here, hence why I buy all my fabric from the US, much cheaper, even with the shipping on top.
