Economic Fabric Shopping

By admin | Jun 2, 2009

img_014891I love to fabric shop but in todays economy paying $9 dollars and higher per yard can really become expensive, and you will find you can easily spend hundreds of dollars to make a quilt.
I find myself buying more and more fabric on Ebay. Ebay really seems to be where I am finding the best deals when I need to purchase fabrics. Here is a link to our personal store: Funtastic Fabrics You will find other products from other sellers I enjoy throughout our web page.

Another great way to save is to sign up for your favorite websites newsletter. When they get desperate for money the newsletters fly. I just picked up a queen size quilt kit from my favorite website for $32.00 using all Moda Fabrics.

Tip # 3 is to just ask your local quilt shop if they offer discounts. Most shops will give a 10%-15% discount to quilt guild members. Not a member? Ask your shop if there is a local guild and join. Being a guild member is not only fun but it can save on the cost of your fabric.

Happy Quilting,
Jen
