    $9.99 to $10.99. I also order a lot online, especially from Fabric.com. And I've gotten some real deals here on the Forum.

    $18.95/ metre and up here in Edmonton, Alberta. That's why I buy my fabrics online and from members here.

    Was in the Joann's store in Minot and they have lot of quality q fabric at 3.99 some of the pricier stuff is marked down to 7 & 8. Of course if you want specialty costs a little more. fat qtrs were $.99 each. daffodil dash stuff was 2.99.

    $16.98 and up - that's per metre. Fabric shops in the USA are my downfall!

    Your answers convince me that I am doing the right thing to go to Thrift Stores and buy fabric. At St. Vincents I bought 20 yards for $9.00. At Good Will I bought 2 yards for $2.00 All these are new fabrics. All I need to do is sterilize them and use. I especially look for Crib quilt designs.

    I was in Wal-Mart a couple of weeks ago and looked over their fabric. It was %5.95 a yard and was like 150 thread count. I wouldn't want it even if they were giving it away. Can you imagine the shrinkage?

    We're over $10, and that includes quilting cottons at JoAnn's as well as the LQS. I always check on line, sites like Z & S fabrics, Connecting Threads, e-quilter. I always check out the clearance items on these sites, too. Lately I've been shopping in my stash - about time I start using these fabrics and kits that I just "had to have" LOL
