Our wm still has fabric but they down sized it a whole lot. But when they remodeled and clearance fabric out for $1.00 a yard I went crazy and then when it went down to $.25 a yard my husband started helping me pick stuff out and he doesn't care about quilting. So I say go for it while you have the chance cause when it's gone it's gone. I got some really nice fabrics that will be great for backing on quilts.

I like to get 3 or more yards that way if a friend or a sister really likes it I have enough to share. It also depends on what size quilts you make. If you only make baby quilts or wall hangings 1/2 yd should be enough. But, if you make king size quilts it takes a LOT of fabric for both sides.

if you belong to a swap or a guild, get as much as you can of the fillers and blenders for the colors YOU love best. template plastic, templates, everything that costs a lot at retail. honestly? there are online sales on fabric all the time.
there's one place that only charges $5 shipping all the time.

ONE went Out and One downsized when they built SC, Here more lately they reevaluated and we got to keep it TG!!! We got bargains but Not .25 a yard, I buy as much as I can and the store that went OUT I rarely go to. Why Shop at WM if you Can't buy Fabric??? Not Me!!! :twisted:
