they have to get it from somewhere. you never know, they might tell her where they get it supplied from

I don't think she wants to get so hardcore as to contact a website like that. She is a SAHM and doing these crafts as a sideline.

OK, this is the dumbest post you've made yet and that's saying a lot. First off, walmart is the WORST place to get fabric and only stupid Nazi hippos would shop there. Secondly, she wants PATTERNED FABRIC. Do you know what a pattern is? A pattern is a design printed OVER AND OVER AND OVER. It would take forever to "stick letters on." Lastly, what do you mean by "stick letters on"? Fabric letters? Plastic letters? Letters from a labelmaker? What? In the immortal words of Jack McCoy HOW FAR UP YOUR ASS IS YOUR HEAD???

That might be exactly what she's looking for if it's not too pricey. Thanks!!

The problem is that a standard sheet of paper is fairly small as compared to yardage normally needed for craft projects.
Again, she's a SAHM and this might be more time than she's wanting to invest.

Thanks everyone!! (Except volleyball29)
