Trashed it here. I don't like clothes ads in my quilt mags either.

I don't like the 1/4 yard cuts - too limited as to what I can do with it cut that way.

And if someone is paying $7.95 for a fat quarter that means $31.80 a yard for fabric plus shipping costs. I definitely wouldn't be quilting at prices like that. Ridiculous!

Yep - can get the same "deal" for less at my LQS, unless it is batiks - those cost a little more. I tossed mine to - felt good about it as I tossed it in to the recycle bin!

Doesn't sound like a good deal to me but connecting threads does have some good prices a lot of the time.

JoAnn's has their fat quarters on sale for 99cents each from time to time, so I would wait for one of their sales, sign up for their newsletters. I just brought 10 fat quarters that were Batiks to make a throw quilt.

Someone must think that quilters are not smart people. Surprise! If we can calculate yardage for quilts.............think about it. :thumbup:

Well, ladies.............I have to say that we Canadians pay about $4.50 for a FQ so maybe it is geared to us?????

I'm sorry about grousing about this fabric club when fellow quilt board friends in Europe, Australia, and Canada pay so much more than I do for quilt fabric. I'm spoiled...and ashamed.

I think if I am going to spend over $3.00 for a FQ (NOT!!!) I would like to see it first and not have someone else pick it out for me.
