Fabric exchange?

This popped up on my YouTube notice....secondchancefabrics.com What a cool idea! You can send in fabric you no longer want and get a store credit to pick up other fabrics. If you are looking for a discontinued fabric line, you might find it there.

I went to the link and when I clicked on shop now it says "Account has been suspended." It is a good idea if you had a fabric you were looking for.

I've been telling everyone for years that a store for second chance overbought fabric would be a hit. Everyone has fabric that they no longer need or want so they could sell it on consignment.

I too tried the shop and no go. Too bad would be a great idea.

We have a store like that not too far from my house - it's a Long Arm quilter and she buys fabric by the pound and sells it at $4 a yard. Not good if you want to get larger yardages, but great for 2-3 yard or smaller chunks.
