Fabrics that I looked at were around 10 to 11€ a metre/150cm wide.    Report

Callie I especially liked the one for the provençale fabrics, wide width fabric and very reasonable. Cendrillon    Report

Provençale fabric: I would be interested to know what the of "weight" is like, so if you do buy some please let me know. In the past I have bought provençale fabric in the marche St Pierre in Paris. I used it to make a quilt, it was very cheap but was definitely furnishing weight and a heavy fabric to sew. It was fine for a machine pieced and machine quilted item but no good for hand quilting.

I would be surprised if the fabric was as fine as quilting fabric - but I will certainly let you know, Cendrillon. I wonder if they would send samples for colour etc?    Report
