Online Quilt Shops with small minimum cuts

I am making a stained glass quilt (presumably as a Christmas gift, but
I never promised which year, so I should be safe). Many of the
fabrics only call for 1/8 yard. Since I am trying to keep my spending
to a minimum, I don't want to use this as a stash-increasing excuse.
Unfortunately, many/most online shops that I frequent require 1/2 yard
minimums per fabric. Does anyone have any suggestions for reputable
online shops with smaller minimum cuts?

TIA,

Melinda. (deMoMo)

swap with you.... if that'd help??? :-)))

www.fatquarterfever.com sells fat quarters. I don't know if that would work
for your project, but they have all kinds of bundles to choose from.

Thank you to everyone for your help! I ended up going to a semi-local
quilt shop (about an hour away) since I wanted to be able to really
see the fabrics. And I found out when I got there that the minimum
cut is 1/8 yard! I was both gladdened and saddened by that. So I
bought a few extra fabrics "just in case" with some of the money that
I saved by not buying 1/4 yards.
