www.thousandsofbolts.com I just found it and placed an order. Good prices on top brand fabrics. I wonder how they offer them so low? |

Haven't ordered from them but they certainly have good prices! Please let us know how the shipping and quality of fabric is when you receive your order.

I think because some of them are at least a couple of yrs old. I recognise some of the Hoffmann and Bali stuff from 2/3 yrs ago. (my machine/fabric dealer dates her bolts and sells the older ones at a discount. -I- happend to have some of that stuff in my stash....)

I think Chrys is right. Those prices are below wholesale but we can get bolt ends and discontinued fabrics for about 1/2 of wholesale. that is probably where these are coming from. Nothing wrong with that if it is the print you want. Funny thing is I still have alot of fabric over 5 years old that suddenly is selling like crazy again. Guess people have forgotten it and think it's new.
Have fun or don't do it, Tom

| Shipping was $8.40 for ten yards. I got Hoffman, RJR, and Benartex fabrics. They look like great quality. I think I'll be buying from them often now. |
