I've been looking at some great deals on fabric by the pound. A few different sites have some great prices like this.
Has anyone bought fabric by the pound? How much fabric is usually in a pound? Do they actually weigh out a pound on scales?

I'm on such a tight budget right now, deals like this is about all I can afford right now.

It can be a good deal if you are looking for small pieces. Just remember, sometimes you may get a large piece of something they couldn't sell. I really like the sites that sell fabric by the pound by color or theme.

We have a discount fabric store called SAS here in the valley. Some of their fabrics are by the pound. They use to have all their fabrics by the pound, but I guess it was to good a deal for the fabricholics!

I tried that a few years ago. I got an assortment of the butt-uglyiest fabric of the cheapest quality that I didn't even imagine. I have ended up using it for plant ties, gravel catcher in the yard, bags for spices to simmer, etc. I wouldn't waste my time with something that of such a poor quality. Beware.
