As was mentioned, Wal-Mart's dollar table. Wal-Mart is presently going through the process of eliminating 90 - 95% of their fabric departments across the nation. The first to go is the dollar table. You might find the fabric moved to the $2.00 section. If you have a fabric department at your local Wal-Mart you might want to get together people to write or email them to try and make your Store continue to carry fabric. Apparently the Wal-Mart thinks that people don't sew anymore, of coarse the ones making the decision to remove fabric live on the east and west coast and have no clue about the Central and sewing. :P Management at the three WMs here has informed their employees that work in the fabric department to not mention anything about the phasing out of the fabric. Stepping off soapbox
Perhaps you might look here http://www.fabricandart.com/HTML_files/Fabrics/fabric.html Have not dealt with them You might want to check out Taiwanese cotton fabrics as I think they are more likely to have the metallic thread running throgh the fabric. -----Original Message----- This isn't very historical, but I know somebody on this list knows where to find EVERYTHING - does anyone know a source for that very light-weight Indian cotton used for summer blouses, etc? The stuff with the gold or silver threads woven in? Thanks!
