There was quite a bit of fabric for $0.99 a yard (although the $1 per yard store was mysteriously closed). Also great deals on silk -- I really wish that I'd had a project in mind, because someone was offering dupioni silk for $4 a yard (he bargained down from $6).

At slightly less of a bargain level, there was a huge fabric store: Michael Levine. I had to restrain myself from buying quite a bit of ribbon. I may be heading back there soon, though. It also had some really nice yarns, although they were certainly not a great deal.
What is a great deal is the loft across the street that is owned by the same company: they sell fabric for $2 a pound! Of course, it's just huge bins of random fabric, but still. I found a roll of pale green velvet upholstery fabric. (My camera is again not working, so I can't show it to you.) I paid less than $5 and I have enough to cover several pillows. I think it will nicely match a stripy throw pillow that we have (which I also covered with a fabric remnant, years ago).
