I really like high quality fabric. I don't like paying for it. My solution? The clearance corner that's in every fabric store. You have to keep an open mind, and can't have anything too specific in mind, otherwise you narrow your options.
Today I walked into an expensive fabric store, in my jeans and "still in college" look, so no one asked to help me, which is fine I would have told them "no" anyway. I marched my happy butt back in the corner of the store, in a dimly lit room, past the bathrooms...basically, a closet. There it was my wonderful secluded heaven. All alone, with a nice variety of remnant fabric. If you have never been to this corner of the store, I suggest you go immediately. The prices vary with the size of the fabric. Most pieces are +/- a yard- great for pillows, chair cushions, or maybe in a picture frame. I spent $15 on about 1.5 yards of fabric...now what to do with them....
