It's very addictive. If you come here once, you figure out how much you can learn and you keep coming back. But it's a good addiction. :-)

Not to take away from our Classified section but if push would come to shove, there is always " www.quiltersauction.com".
I have gotten some very nice fabrics in larger sizing for a very good price. It's pretty decent to get like 3.75 yards and it works out to like $4.00 a yard. This is all new fabric and being able to have enough for a pretty backing, even if it is only 44" is a pretty good deal IMHO... Just a thought in hopes of helping only.

I've read only about half of the other answers you received about selling your fabric, so someone else may have already given this suggestion. EBay is a great place to sell fabric. I know this because I can't even guess how many fabric purchases I've made on eBay. Measure each piece and offer it as an auction or a buy-it-now for a set price. Most of what I've bought has cost the same as or close to the price at JoAnn's or any other online fabric sellers. If it's any certain brand, such as Moda, that helps to sell it. Go to eBay and do a search for "fabric" to get an idea of how other sellers are listing theirs. Good luck!

If you do decide to sell you stash at your yard sale, I would like to suggest that you put an ad on Craigslist (if you have one for your area), specifically for fabric - who knows what that might draw in.
Of course, as others have suggested you can list it here as well. I see know that you have more than 20 posts but "new user" is still showing under you name. You've hung on to it this long, what's another month or so and you know everybody here would appreciate your stash!

I'm new here also, so I can't advise about the rules other than for you to read them. I do buy fabric on eBay quite often and have never had any problems. Just bought 1 yd of Nancy Crow fabric a couple of days ago for $5.00 + $1.51 for shipping. Just a thought for you. Depends on how fast you want to get rid of your stash.
