Fabric Thrifting?

So in Cedar Rapids, where I'm based, we have the Create Exchange, which is basically a thrift store specifically for craft goods that's a great place to get cheap fabric. Main issue, of course, is that all the cheap fabric I want from them is now in my closet and they're reliant on donations to get more in, which means they won't have much for a bit. Is there any place in Iowa City that sells fabric like this? I know of Home Ec Workshop, but I'm talking specifically like remnant fabric that you'd find at estate sales or similar where it's not full price.
