    Walmart and Hobby Lobby have bins also. HL's contains a lot of clothing fabric.

    Our FORMER (now closed) Joann's had a section at the back of the store called "88s". $1.88, $2.88. $3.88 etc. I used to check them out first, particularly for the batiks and quilting cottons. I have made "unders" for my sons and was able to find crazy prints which they loved.

    Our Hancock store was moving to a new location last month so I bought remnants for 90% off. A lot of it had a yard or a little more. I had 2 carts full. What a deal.

    I have a good sized piece of silver poly knit that I bought for a golf quilt. I'd be glad to share if anyone needs some.

    At the JoAnn's near my house, there are remnant bins on the end of the thread gondolas near the cutting table.

    Every store that sells fabrics have a remnant bin. I think some people regularly check the bins ti pick out the kind they want, before anyone else gets there.

    Wow! I am blown away by the generosity of you QB members! I will individually PM all of you who have offered to share, but at this point I'm a little concerned about postage costs and perhaps taking on more than I can handle right now. We are in the process of getting our huge house ready for sale and I have already gone through the painful process of thinning out my stash of books and fabrics. Most of my remaining quilting items are going into storage bins in the garage. Thought that making doll clothes would give me something to do while we wait for the house to sell, and I'm trying to keep all of the doll things (including the dolls!) limited to a single large tote. I'm really afraid of acquiring more doll fabrics than I can handle, especially since I am also re-acquainting myself with crocheting and knitting so I can make those kinds of doll clothes as well. On the one hand I would love to receive a variety of fabric types for the dolls; on the other hand, it's going to be slow going for me for quite awhile as I chip away at the mountain of housework that needs to be done. It is wonderful to find so many generous people on the board, though. That alone is worth a lot to me!
