 :( S & B in Lancaster are no longer doing Liberty fabrics, and as Kats fabrics was their eBay store, none there either.  I've no idea what has brought this about, but I'm in mourning.

I had reliable info that they lost the contract to print Liberty fabrics to an Italian firm  :( :(

I saw a notice that Kat's fabrics were to stop selling Liberty and I got an order in just in time. I had no idea that Standfast were also going to stop selling, though I did wonder why they had a half price offer recently.

I too am mourning the loss of a cheap source of Liberty, but given the size of my stash it might be for the best.
