She stated the $3.00 a yard was ONLY for the grand opening.After the sale was off she raised the price to $4.00 a yard.Two weeks later they went up to $8.00 a Yard.I can still buy Name brand fabrics for $7.95 where I live.Moda,Rjr,Kauffman,SSI ect.,so for me the price jump is outragious.,Kris

At some of the shops I've shopped at lately, $8 is still pretty cheap.

What do you mean, BellaBoo? I buy direct from the manufacturers' own warehouses (you can't get more direct than that) but still the wholesale price of all prints are well over $5 / yard.

What kind of fabric warehouse are you referring to? The ones that buy closeouts? I'm confused...
