Thread: Fabric help

I was wondering if any of you can recomend a good place to get vintage style print fabrics. Every where that I have looked at has either only got fat quarters or the minimum amount you can buy is 1/4 meter. The FQ aren't any help and it works out very expensive buying in 1/4m multiples.

Any sugestions would be welcomed.
