Every place I've looked at online is super expensive. You might try Etsy. I've found lots of bargains for small amounts of fabric this way. Lots of sellers, too. That's what I did during COVID for masks. AsianFabrics is one seller that I liked. Also kekkstore, a Canadian seller. The material from both sellers was lovely and good quality. Read the reviews carefully on Etsy and you can get an better idea of the quality of the material. I will be watching to see what others say. Good luck.
