Marshall Dry Goods
I went on MDG to look for backing and was pleasantly surprised that they now have 3 yard cuts at $7.99 a yard, or 23.97 for the 3 yard cut. Others are priced at 32.97. I'm guessing that these are remnants or clearance. They also show precut jelly rolls made from backing fabric @ 24.99. That's a way you can see all of a particular backing colors.
Some of the $7.99 backings are patriotic, so great if you make QOV.
Just thought I'd share.

I go there a lot. I buy name brand fabric by the yard 1/2 what the quilt shops sells it. The retail side does not have a big mark up. They don't rely on the retail sales for their main profit.. They are a fabric distributor. I have never had MDG fabric bleed no matter how rich the colors. I bought some of the new jelly rolls and they are gorgeous. Can't tell any difference from some of Stonehenge lines.

MDG also has quite a few Christmas, Halloween and patriotic fabrics on sale for $1.99.

All MDG 108 backings are $5.50 a yard wholesale if you buy a bolt. You don't need a tax number to buy any MDG fabric by the bolt. Usually 15 yard bolts which will be plenty for three large quilts. Check out the wholesale site for big savings.
I have two friends and we each buy a bolt and split it three ways. We all get three different backings. It saves us a lot of money and we are lucky that we live close enough to shop there in person.

I used to buy a lot of fabric by the bolt from them. I can't say a lot about their customer service though. I had a issue with a bolt I purchased. -- it was in multiple cut length pieces. I email a few times over a course of a couple of weeks and never heard back from them. (Can't call due to hearing impairment). Occasionally I've thought about buying from them again, but I don't want to run into another issue and get ignored, and get stuck with something that I can't use it for what I bought it for..
