I can soo relate to this. Fabric.com had 44 yards of a fabric that I wanted 7 yards of. They had had it for a long time. I was ordering several other must haves, backing and such to finish projects already in mind and thought, I will order later. When I came back a mere hours later, it was GONE. Someone must have bought it all, not that I blame them. It is beautiful and although I have nearly finished one quilt with this fabric, I was planning at least one more. Ordered some of one fabric to determine if it was a match for another project, it was, and now there is no more. And on and on it goes....

I know what you mean. There was a feather weight machine at my local Bernina for $200 and I didn't get it at the time. So when I got home I decided I wanted it and called them back but it was gone. The owners are friends of mine so I should have listened when they were telling me what a good deal it was. It had all the bells and whistles.

Ouch--that must have been going around--kept looking at some fabric in eQuilter for a challenge quilt and when I finally decided to get it, it was gone! With snow days from work the last 2, I stayed up wayyy too late trying to find something else that would work--Fat Quarters Shop (has anyone bought on-line from them?) had something I liked so jumped on that.

try http://quiltshops.com/ search engine. this shop popped up and they have it for 7.73 a yard http://www.somewheresewing.com/cgi-b..._12789_43_Leaf. I just spent the last 2 nights looking for yardage for 2 different jelly rolls I purchased over a year ago. I wanted to be able to have enough fabric for matching borders . It's time consuming but between that search engine and google I finally found some on sale for 6.50 instead of the over 10.00 price
