My LQS did the same thing starting in Dec. Again, it's not on fabric in stock but anything new coming in (actual new or re-order) will reflect the price change. So from 9.50 - 10; or 12-1250 depending on fabric.

At least the increase is only on the new stuff coming in....Hancock Fabrics (the chain) was upping the prices on all their Kona a few weeks ago -- every bolt on the shelf!

They do...not all stock is listed...if you are looking for something specific, let them know they will look for it and are great at finding exactly what you need.

also - be prepared, they are not known to be super friendly or helpful unless they have replaced those grouches

but.... I just mentally prepare myself because their fabric is reasonably priced.

Oh, Mary Jo's!! We used to live in Indian Trail, NC and went to Mary Jo's and it was overwhelming the amount of fabric there. I sure wish we had Mary Jo's here in Arizona.

Your color palette is just beautiful. We are all looking forward to seeing the finished quilt. Happy quilting.

I'm having fun cutting and making 2 1/2" circles right now. Next will be 6" squares (giving a little wiggle room) to attatch the circles to. I will post a pick of a finished block when I get one done.
