I just found this site this morning. The prices are unbelieveable.
http://trendyfabrics.com
Has anyone heard of this company?

Just checked it out, Mary. Pretty unbelievable. I found some wool blends I really like for the Sandra Betzina jacket pattern I got. Do I dare???

Prices that cheap.....It's a little scary. I'll wait and see if anyone has experience with them. If not, I might give them a shot and be the guinea pig. :bg:

Thanks, Lennie

Interesting - most of the items I dipped into seem to be lots of about 3 or 4 yards each - perhaps they are so cheap because they buy up ends of rolls from other people?

I agree with Magot. I was leery of distinctivefabrics.com at first. Free swatches, really low prices. But I have dealt with them for at least two years and they are amazing.
So I checked out the site and signed up for the newsletter. I just have no projects in the works right now to try them out.
