    Default Fabric store in Rialto, CA

    I was told of a fabric store in Rialto California that has fabric $2 a yard. Has anyone been to this store and do they carry quilting fabric? And most importantly, what is the name of the store?
    Thanks

    I was there years ago. Also, El Toro, Santa Ana, and Las Vegas. Most have gotten rid of the cotton, or have very little. They have mostly upholstery type or Home Dec fabric. It would be best to call first.

    My sister used to live near the store - but that was 4 years ago. It is a remnants store really. What wasn't selling wass shipped off to this type of store. They had fabric that dated back to the '70's. So you never know what you will find. But what we did find were panels. They had panels for small children quilts at $1.00 a piece. We bought quite a few.

    Have you been to M & L Fabrics in Anaheim? Now there is a lot of fabric - some very inexpensive.

    I use to buy remnants of Robert Kaufman at M&L for $1.49 a yard in the early 90s but even their prices have risen. Off the bolt (end of bolts from manufacturers) are now $5.98 but that is less expensive than full retail. I would be very carefully buying anything at $2.00 The folded flat folds at M&L is nothing I would buy anymore.

    I'm heading up to M&L the Friday before Easter. I'm very excited. A person can go SERIOUSLY into fabric overload! My DS is practicing for his drivers test, so we're taking a road trip. He'll just play with his phone while I shop and be perfectly happy.

    I was just at M &L yesterday with a friend. I got quite a few flat folds of Kaufman fabric for 2.98/yd. Also got off the bolt for 5.98 and 10.98/yd. I was good and only bought 4 pieces of fabric that wasn't on my list of things to look for. I'm going to work on a black/white print king sized chevron with a pop of solid yellow in one or two rows. I found lots of black prints. They also have a good selection of Kona for 6.49/yd.
