I've bought a bolt of muslin at Joann's but got no discount. Probably used a coupon.

I bought a full bold, plus extra yardage, of muslin at a LQS so I would have enough for my Dear Jane quilt. I feel I was charged a fair price.

Yes, when the price was right. I have a couple of full bolts (15-16 yards) in my garage that I got for $1.99 a yard. Good fabrics too, a couple of Robert Kaufman, A Seattle Bay,
I have finished of many many bolts that were on sale, In all I probably have about 44 pieces of fabric that have over 10 yards on them.

I bought a full bolt of muslin at JoAnn's a couple of years back -- don't remember the exact price but thought it was good at the time...

Bought a full bolt (29 yards) at WM last week in white, not Percale, what's the other one? for VBS costumes. We used it all so no leftovers.

I bought five bolts of good quality from a vendor at a quilt show. It was about $2.50/yard.

I plan to buy bolts when I get to go to Marshalls.

Hi Everyone,

I am new on this site and I love it. I would like to buy fabric by the bolt, but at wholesale prices. Does anyone know of a place I can contact to do this?

Thanks, Linda
