    Consider yourself warned.... Moda tried to hold their prices but just couldn't do it any longer. Retailers will be paying more on the next batch of new fabrics. Batiks are going up A LOT!

    I think the sales rep said the retail price per yard would be $12. I looked at the fat quarter bundles and the price would be $4 per FQ. Ouch!

    I'll just have to start buying cheap material and making do. You know, I remember the reason my mother made our clothes was to save money. Now it's cheaper to buy the clothes and not make them. I'm only 40 so I'm not talking about in the 30's or anything. I grew up late 70's and 80's.

    It's a good thing I have enough fabric to last me two lifetimes. I won't be buying at these prices too often.
