Fat Quarters

What do you pay for fat quarters at your local quilt shop? Ours are at $3.00 right now. Is that high or low or average?

That’s what most are at my LQS- sometimes they have a 2 for 1 sale which is nice.

Yup, the average price for fabric has gone up a lot and I usually buy lots of fat quarter bundles. Now I really stop, do the math and opt for purchasing 1/2 yards. Our hobby is not cheap!

All the fabric if not on sale at four of the local quilt shops are $10.99 - $11.99 a yard. The fat quarters are $3. I seldom buy fabric from the local shops anymore. I do buy notions and patterns, those are about the same as online and it saves delivery time and most time shipping charges.

Yes, our FQs are about $3.00 each now at the LQS. I buy almost everything online and get wonderful sales.

We are lucky here.... We have one LQS that is much more reasonable. FQs right now are $2.00, but buy 20 for $20.00. I bought 40 because they will go up I'm sure.

3.00 sounds about right to me too. Doing the math you may pay a bit more but sometimes I like to get them rather than yardage so it's worth the extra money to me.
