Good quality batiks are at least $8.50 per yd. I would certainly pay that if I needed a certain color, but if I want to add to my stash I'd wait until it goes on sale. And thanks for offering 1/4 yd cuts. I've found I can usually get what I need from 1/4 yd & I don't add so much to my stash/scrapbasket. Besides the scrappy look is so "Chic".

I would have to pay that or more any where I get cloth from I would get at least 1/4 of each

I have paid a lot more than $8.50 /yd for good Batiks ,especially in Nappanee,In. It's well worth it when you see the finished quilt. So 8.50 is very reasonable to me.

The rep's coming this afternoon, so I'll be placing my order. Thank you all, very much, for the helpful comments and suggestions. I'll post which ones I ordered later (probably tomorrow). Those of you who actually want to place an order please PM me.

Right now I'm off to our local Panera to buy treats for when the rep comes. This person is rather special to me, as he's the first rep who ever deemed us worthy of a visit. (Reps have limited time on the road and have to choose carefully how to spend that time.) I haven't seen him in several years as he's been battling liver cancer, and this might well be the last time I see him. His wife will be taking over the sales business for him, and it will be my first time meeting her. Have to put on a proper welcome, right?

The ONLY one I do not LOVE is the Primary colored one....all of the rest are absolutely BEAUTIFUL in my mind...thanks for sharing.

I like the Harvest and the Emerald

Not a homely one in the bunch. I love them all! I am partial to blues & teals but, honestly, they are all beauties!

This is depressing... the rep didn't have any samples to look at, because the fabrics were TOO NEW! So all that's available to look at, for now, is the pictures that I posted.

We did have a nice long talk, so when the samples do come out (which I will probably not get to see :-( ) ... I can ask some good questions along the lines of "exactly what colors are in that one" and "how wide are those bands of color, anyway?"

(sigh)

I don't care for Primary but love the rest.
