As someone who deals with the cotton industry, I can tell you cotton prices have gone up like 124% in the last 3 months so it's not the stores fault, it's the mills charging more.

Sassy, Thanks. I just looked at Eleanor Burns site and couldn't help myself. I bought enough fabric for two quilt backings, 1 yard of baby fabric, plus batting for one quilt. All this for under $40, including shipping. That web site is a keeper.

Shoofly,

You are so very welcome! :thumbup: I spent a bit more than you (45 yards :wink: ), but I'm trying to build up my blenders so I can try some of Ricky Tims' Convergence Quilts. Nice to see decent prices and knowing that they are going to continue to go up, so I'm getting as much as I can now.

Where do they think we are going to get the money?

True story! Unlike the government, we get in trouble if we print more ourselves!!!

In England we have been payig between £8 and £10 a yard for years, thats why I shop at Fabric Shack on line, even with the postage it is loads cheaper. I get a couple of lots a year with no postage when my friend visits. :-)

Looked at Moda over here a couple of months ago - it was $34.95 per metre. It stayed there.

I to in the "stash room" of my house and find it already paid for!!! Sure helps to look at what I got before I get more.
