    Magna Fabrics

    I use them. I have nothing but good to say about them. What I bought were supposed to be seconds, but found no seconds in my orders. I've bought about 500 yards of material from them.

    Lots of folks here use Magna Fabrics. I've never heard anything bad about them. Shop with (relative) confidence!

    Only downside i have seen so far is the shipping is kinda high, they leave it on the roll and you pay the weight, fed ex

    It's the length of the roll that raises the cost, but even with shipping added in, they have great pricing. I've bought 5 rolls from them.

    You are right,just ordered 40 yards and with tax and shipping the total was $61.43, .
    Try and beat that price, i was just alittle leary at first but after knowing that some of you guys shop there without any problems i did some math and pulled the trigger.
    Thanks everyone for the help!
