Huzzah! I found a good deal at Walmart today! 100% cotton crinkle guaze for $1.00 yd~! I bought about 10 yds of dusty rose, brown and light brick! It's in the washing machine right now.
They also had black, light blue, light sage green, beige,marigold yellow and peach. ;D

Hello All,

I can usually find something awesome and lovely in 4 places.  I call them my fabric Treasures!

#1.  eBay-  Now I have to say I have slowed down in finding the really awesome finds on auction.  Loads of people are now putting lovely things up for silk and such in the perfect colors and designs for Elizabethan/French/Spanish/Italian City States for $94.00 per yard or more.  But in the old days? I have won:


5 yards Italian City States/Spanish in Red/Gold                                         $12.00  plus $6.00 shipping  = $18.00

11 yards    Spanish motif  in Purple/Gold                                                  $36.00  plus $5.00 shipping  = $41.00

25 yards     1.08 ounce Linen                                                                $300.00 plus $25.00 shipping=$325.00

15 yards     English/French Fleur de Lys                                                   $30.00  plus $8.00 shipping  =$38.00



#2.  LA Fabric District- If you are coming anywhere close? eMail me
       I can meet you and I promise you? Finds galore!!

20 yards  English/French Fleur de Lys motif                                                $40.00 no shipping

12 yards Italian City States Chenille                                                          $84.00 no shipping

100 yards silver lace                                                                             $35.00 no shipping
 
10 yards soft white wool                                                                        $60.00 no shipping

10 yards Fleur de Lys Lace                                                                     $40.00 no shipping

 

#3. My smaller local fabric store called "Fabrics R Us"

Dupioni Silks 54" wide    $7.00 to $10 per yard                      The more you purchase? The less you pay!

Damasks  $4.00 to $10.00 per yard


#4 The Old Denver Fabrics
I am going to go to the store itself and check out the bargin that are there, now that the web one is owned by different people the same fabrics I have purchased in the past are not on the site. So I have to say?? I don't have the same thought regarding it!
