depending on how much I need I could buy the squares or off the bolt!!!
I buy felt off the bolt. I only buy it where I can see it. The quality varies, particularly the white. I often find very lumpy looking white felt and I don't like it that way. Good sources for me is Hancock's and Walmart.

I usually purchase felt by the bolt online at Joann's 50 percent off and free shipping during special times of the year sales.
Also, have purchased fancy felts in packs online on sale different places and different quality.
I buy when I find in the remnants at Hancocks-$1.00
a piece. I got a good assortment during Jan. and Feb. I don't get winter association, but also get
a lot of nice pieces of fleece that way.
I got all mine at the goodwill store maybe 3 bages full,but i just went and bought one meter of white as i wanted to make clothe pins that Lique gave us !!hugs
I buy mine at JoAnn's when on sale! When I need and not on sale or don't have a 40% off coupon, I shudder!!! Hahaha! Hugs, Judy
Felt Fleece and flannel. I need lots of yardarge in lots of colors. I use felt for finger puppets, use fleece for hand puppets, flannel can go anywhere. felt is for anything not worn and collect dust and threads. Polar fleece is the same way. just a fyi. Live Laugh Download Stitch!
I buy mine at Hobby Lobby. They have it by the yard as well as the squares. I of course wait for a sale or bring my 40% off coupon with me.
I get it by the sheet - and wait for it to go on sale at Joann or Michaels. I understand the dollar stores sometimes carry it too - must try that.
I try to buy mine at Joann's when it is $3.00 a yard on sale!
What do you use so much felt for? I rarely use it.
It makes great little girl purses. Clippies for little girl's hair. PEncil toppers.
I buy lots of small 9" X 12" squares. Especially in colors that I can not buy by the yard. These I use for coasters. The colors I use frequently like the red, white, cream, etc I buy by the yard. In my area the only place I can find it is at Ben Franklin Craft store. I have never bought any felt over the internet. Hugs, Mary
Wow, I haven't seen a Ben Franklin in years!! They used to be called "dime stores" - must have changed their focus. Would love to have one close to me.
In Portugal we have almost all the coloures by the meter and as I need so much of felt, I have allmost all coloures at home. Minimum 1 meter of each. Belive me You donĀ“t want to see my storageroom :)
I do buy by the meter red- white and yellow to embroider on to make cards,but once bought smaller bits when I saw them and is handy to have too.
Sorry see your other qustion too, I buy it from a shop that sells all sorts of material for sewing.
I buy the a4 size bits and am very careful with how I use it. Even the tiny scraps are cut up and go to a school for projects.
Thanks for asking Bev, I look forward to all the answers, too.
