    Default Fat Quarter Score! (or not?)

    The regular price marked on all of these fat quarters is $3.75. If you bought 30 of them you could get them for $1.85 each. That to me is a bargain! They all are good quality quilting fabric.

    Would this be a bargain where you live? (I know fabric is more expensive in Canada)

    I usually buy fat quarters for $1.25per fat quarter, but sounds like you got a bargain for the area in which you live,
    Plus, the fabrics are beautiful!

    $3.50 - $3.75 is standard for my area I think $1.85 is a pretty good deal, that would make the yardage$7.40/yd.

    Great deal, wonderful fabrics. I usually work up what the price would be per yard (4 FQ), the quality of the fabric (preferably LQS quality) and decide from there if I got a great deal. I buy on sale, that's my mantra.
